Our DBA has been looking at increasing several of the buffer pools. I know he said that buffer/cache hits was in the 60% range on Monday. He did 2 rounds of tuning, including bouncing the DB2 region last night. DB2 is shut down usually only on the weekend with our weekly IPL.
The problem we have is that this whole week there is a lower volume due to the Thanksgiving holiday, so the testing today won't have the volume we need.
