I didn't mention Cache partitioning :-) I don't think it is appropriate for
the problem you have described so far.
I'm confused that you are saying the DB2 IO is low, when you previously
described these as fairly active disks. If the consolidation was a folding
of whole volumes, then you
Radoslaw,
Wouldn't the issue with the DWDM auto-negotiation depend on the DWDM
manufacturer and Card type? The paragraph below makes this sound like the FICON
channel is DWDM aware and will not negotiate down to the speed supported by the
DWDM or TDM card from any vendor.

We have too have recently installed a USP with a string of Mod-27, I'm
curious.
What type of DB2 Files have you allocated? Table(s), Log(s) or
Catalog(s)?
With IOSQ at zero, is there other Fairly Active Disk on the same CU.
I am thinking that DB2 TS Scans may be impacting you.
Ron,
I don't think it depends. All IBM FICON cards in the host has no
capability of setting the speed. So they have to autonegotiate the
speed. And of course there are no non-IBM FICON cards inside the z10 ;-)
DWDM - of course I mean any optical multiplexer, it can be coarse WDM,
TDM or
This was not a cosolidation, Only new table datasets have gone to the new
MOD-27 disks(no logs, no catalogs).
The disks in question have an IORATE of about 5 IO/sec with a response time
of 20-25 ms. The CU is a new one - so there is not much else happening on
it.

Has anyone written a freebie utility/rexx/asm/whatever tool to compare

volumes with maintenance/changes applied against the original source

I think this is what you want to do.
An example I wrote does the following:
The proc is called TSTPROC

Thanks much, David. You might want to see my last post on this subject. The

the first; and I've got it solved thanks to input from this list. The length

There is a Rexx exec from Bruce Hewson at Citibank that I think I got from the

It's plausible. It might have been swayed in that direction by the
Teletype KSR33, which generates only upper case codes while 7-bit
ASCII defines both upper and lower case.

Were you suggesting that I code GWSSCP=YES on the NN? The documentation states
that GWSSCP is forced to NO if the node is an EN.
