Our storage architect is trying to get us to use 3390-9's instead of 3390-3's for paging. I know that z/VM doesn't use PAV or HyperPAV for paging, and that more devices means more concurrent I/O's. Has anyone actually tried changing from 3390-3's to one-third as many 3390-9's? If you have, was there a measurable difference in performance? Dennis
