SIO in SDSF vs read/write speed

2007-02-05 Thread R.S.
I made the following observation: 1. WRITE. I put some data to tape (3592J). The average transfer speed was approx. 70MB/s. SDSF shows very high SIO rate for the job, approx. 2500. Data generated by IEBDG, blocksize=32720, RECFM=FB, LRECL=80 2. READ. I read *the same* data, which I previously wr

Steve Thompson has now raised two of the three issues that need to be addressed if this thread is to get serious. What are the apparently implicit BUFSIZE=, BUFNO= and NCP= values being used? John Gilmore Ashland, MA 01721-1817 USA _

Re: SIO in SDSF vs read/write speed CORRECTION

I made a mistake. I missed *one day*. It wasn't 16 hours, but 40 hours. So, write speed is 71 MB/s, and read speed is 41 MB/s. So, read is *slower* - why ? In both cases I used default values for buffers. AFAIK the defaults are quite similar to optimal. The SIO values observed in SDSF remains the
