We used caching at our site until just recently. When we turned it off, we saw about a 15% improvement in our disk to tape copies/migrations. So, to answer your question, it speeds up restores, but it slows down daily processing. At least that's been my experience with it.
-----Original Message----- From: Nelson, Doug [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, October 16, 2002 9:25 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: query storage group When I run a Query Storage Group ( Q stg) on the Disk Pool, I get the following (puzzling) results Name: Diskpool Device: Disk Capactity: 15 gig Pct Util: 92.1 Pct Migr: 54.2 High Mig: 70 Low Mig: 40 My question is, If my Migration parameters are 70/40 (and there is no migration in progress) why do I have a 92% utilized and a 54% migrated? I just had the thought that this could be because we have caching turned on. Is this correct? As a side note, has anyone had problems with caching slowing things down rather than speeding them up?
