Can vdbench write all zeros?

David KnierimApr 4 2016 — edited Apr 8 2016

I know that writing all zeros is not a valid test, but I have a need to do so on my test systems to baseline them.   Doing so is not hard on Linux (cat or dd are your friend), but it would be nice to be able to do it with vdbench.  It would be particularly useful for me on Windows, where I would prefer to not install extra software just to zero the disks.

I looked in the documentation, but I didn't see how to do it.

Thanks,

  David
