To run the above trace in QA after having much planning and discussion with Application team / QA Team to generate maximum load. After 2 hour of trace running and capturing events i end up with 25 GB of trace file.
Before you can start a distributed replay with the Microsoft SQL Server Distributed Replay feature, you must prepare the input trace data by initiating the preprocess stage from the distributed replay administration tool. In the preprocess stage, the distributed replay controller processes the trace data and generates an intermediate file:
Copy all the trace file on the Controller Server to preprocess the trace file.
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff878408.aspx
dreplay preprocess -m $env:COMPUTERNAME -i "C:SQLServerDatabaseMigrationStandardScriptsSetupReplayTraceOnSourceSQLServerSourceTracefilesReplay.trc" -d "C:SQLServerDatabaseMigrationStandardScriptsSetupReplayTraceOnSourceSQLServerReplayTraceProcessedFiles" -f 20
-i : Trace file location
-d : preprocessed file location
-f : (Optional) Use the status_interval parameter, -f, to specify if you want the administration tool to display status messages at a frequency different than 30 seconds.
Once the preprocess stage is done. The output will look as below
