Anthony, If you have DB2 in that plex, I would think twice (or thrice) about increasing the resmil value, as DB2 does heavy enqueue activity. I remember one presentation (I think it was at share or maybe another conference), where someone from IBM GRS presented the following item:
Company A implemented GRS Star and opened a ticket with ibm as a db2 application, that normally ran 9 hours, ran in just a few minutes, so they were sure something had gone wrong. Working with ibm, they went through testing, first back on GRS RING and the default of RESMIL=10. Result: the application ran 9 hours IBM had them change to RESMIL(1) (or maybe 0) and the elapsed time dropped to 90 minutes Change to GRS Star, and the application ran in 9 minutes. Just an example of the impact of the RESMIL setting (and even of what GRS Star can give (yes it does require the Coupling Facility).
