Subject: Question on XIV and AS/400
Good morning list:
Our farm is running all garden variety of machines (zSeriers with z/OS, with zLinux, Intel Linux, Windows, etc). We use DS8000 for z/OS and XIV for all the others.
We absorbed a company which had an AS/400 with 3 internal and dedicated disks about 1 year ago ...
As part of the AS/400 integration to our company we changed the old AS/400 with a new and stronger blade-based AS/400, and using VIOS moved the disks to our standard storage (XIV) that are accessed via a SAN. All of these move were quite a must due to some regulations.
The end users complain that online response time is now worse than in the past and the jobs are taking noticeably longer.
Is anyone using XIV disks with an AS/400 on a similar configuration? Any performance related tips?
I do not know the AS/400 plattform.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Mauri.
