problem with an old vm/esa environment after migration to a flex-es tserver

Hi listers, I have a customer with a really old VM/ESA 2.2, VSE/ESA 2.3 and SQLDS database. Now after migration to the tserver he complains about performance problems. What I have figured out that he has massive paging only on SQLDS service machine (300-500 pages/s). This I cannot understand,

Do you know if this paging is real paging or Dataspace I/O: when using VM dataspace support in DB2, all DB2 I/O is done by CP paging, hence high page rates. Quite some years ago, I created a document to explain the difference. It is called Data in memory techniques or alike and available

Hi Kris, it seems to be dasd paging, because there is also heavy i/o on one paging dasd. I have found your data in memory techniques document, but there is no exec for checking ind spaces only qnssmap exec is listed there. But it was a good hint. I have created a small exec which does the ind

Alan is correct (of course). The VM DUPLEX DETAILS output only applies to the legacy 3990 Duplex function, not PPRC. However, if you have APAR VM63256 applied on z/VM 3.1.0, 4.2.0, or 4.3.0 you should be seeing a line on Q DASD DETAILS as follows: PPRC DETAILS: xxx VOLUME From the help
