Hello Patrick,
I don't have a lot of Oracle DB experience, but our acquisition had it up with
a prod app. They found Oracle behaved much better with 2 vcpus. It wasn't
even using 1/3 of a single z9 IFL at peak, but with 2 vcpus it flew compared to
1. The theory was that Oracle must have writ

Comparing the performance of one instance of Linux for System z to one instance

Hi all:
I'm doing some comparison studies on dasd / disk I/O for different
configurations of storage and storage on different virtualization
platforms (trying to convince management that oracle on Z is an okay

Another handy item for Oracle folks is:

Allows you to simulate Oracle I/O loads on disk configurations without
actually having to install Oracle and find a database big enough to stress
test your filesystem configuration and get your

Which can be interpreted as, with STMM set (fully) on, DB2 will try to use
85% of configured memory (if it needs it ofr not). Then it's back to

I realize that it would not be a apples to apples comparison, but is there
a similar discussion about sizing guests that are running DB2? With STMM
on? And the "Be ware!"s? Does DB2 have instrumentation that can tell you
how it's using memory and indicate "good" value. I am aware the STMM is

O, I didn't know that. I'd expected the reported linux cache to be
filesystem cache and as such not directly related to oracle.
