How To Fix tbench: command not found in Ubuntu / Debian / Kali Linux / Raspbian

In Ubuntu tbench is provided by dbench package.

dbench is:

dbench and tbench simulate the load of the netbench “industry standard” benchmark used to rate (windows) file servers. Unlike netbench, they do not require a lab of Microsoft Windows PCs: dbench produces the filesystem load on a netbench run, and tbench produces the network load, allowing simpler bottleneck isolation.

Note that this benchmark is not a realistic reflection of normal server load.

To fix this problem, we can install more using the command below.

sudo apt-get -y install dbench

This command might take some time to finish depending on your machine internet connection.

You can also use apt command to install dbench.

sudo apt -y install dbench

sudo aptitude install dbench
