Just some observations on today's storage array and DASD Volumes. And some

Basically, DASD is emulated across flash/spinning disk in a storage array. The

Pedant! But, yes, that's exactly what the graph shows, but perhaps
the opposite of what the artist intended.
Statistics can always show what you think you want.
But, showing 24-hour averages doesn't prove a lack of performance impact.
You're doing your customers a disservice if you don't demonstrate the impact
during peak times. 10-15 minute duration.

It depends on how much a z/OS site needs, or doesn't need, precise timing.
Server Timer Protocol can add a leap second at the appropriate time (goes into
a wait for the second), or it can gradually 'steer' the time over seven hours,
gradually correcting the system time.
Attached is nice
