No, SFS will not do concurrent I/O to minidisks located on a single volume. SFS knows on which volules its minidisks are located and acts accordingly. If I remember well, I displayed some minidisk usage in my first append for this subject, where one can see that SFS leaves mindisks unused. Have a

Steve, I know an SFS server won't do multiple I/O's to the same minidisk. My question is whether it will do concurrent I/O's to different minidisks on the same volume. If it will, there might be some benefit to putting two or three minidisks on one volume and using PAV. If not, I'll just put one

PAVs will not benefit SFS. An SFS server (1 entity) can't be setup to do multiple I/Os to the same minidisk. Therefore, the VM I/O dispatcher doesn't have anything (ie. multiple I/Os) to spread out over the real system attached Aliases. Regards, Steve. Steve Wilkins IBM z/VM Development

You really do not want three minidisks belonging to the same SFS on the same DASD. SFS processing will process them singularly. i.e. it will do writes to them filling the first, then the second, then the third. SFS will not spread the I/O among multiple minidisks on the same DASD volume unless SF

The HTML document describing my RxServer package (that includes an improved VMUTIL server) explains how WAKEUP works with its WAKEUP file. We also explain problems of scheduled events that can be missed when a running task brings VMUTIL into the next day. open the RxSERVER HTM file and search f
