Re: RLS implementation for CDS's in DFHSM

2015-12-10 Thread Glenn Wilcock
Our top recommendation for improving DFSMShsm throughput is to use RLS for the HSM CDSes. In nonRLS mode, each HSM locks access to the CDSes while it performs its queued up I/O requests. While that host has the CDSes locked, all other HSM hosts are queueing up their I/O. When a host gets

This is an inquiry to see if there are shops that have implemented Record Level Sharing for their CDS's in DFHSM. 1. Concerns are how frequent have other shops experienced failures in the SMSVSAM asid. 2. Do you have multiple ARCMDxx members to cover in the event of an SMSVSAM
