Linux on System z is NOT Linux on Intel, and is NOT z/VM for traditional CMS workloads. The requirements are very different. On System Z, we have technologies that other platforms can only dream of - and utilizging those technologies often means the difference between success and failure. This topic presents: a.. Configuring for Performance b.. Subsystems: DASD, Storage, Expanded Storage, Paging c.. Scheduler Parameters Analyzing and Tuning Linux Storage in z/VM Environment.
