Page 110: Set Cache-Parameters
set cache-parameters Description Sets cache options for a specific volume, or the cache redundancy mode for a dual- controller storage system. Only change cache settings if you fully understand how your operating Note – system, application, and HBA move data so that you can adjust the settings accordingly.
Page 111 Cache Optimization Mode Before creating or modifying a volume, determine the appropriate cache optimization mode. The controller supports optimization super-sequential mode for sequential I/O and optimization mode for random I/O. standard The cache optimization mode setting for each volume optimizes the cache block size used by the controller: For sequential optimization, the cache block size is 128 Kbyte.
Page 112 Independent Cache Performance Mode In the storage system’s default operating mode, Active-Active, data for volumes configured to use write-back cache is automatically mirrored between the two controllers. Cache redundancy has a slight impact on performance but provides fault tolerance. You can disable cache redundancy, which permits independent cache operation for each controller;...
Page 113 To set the cache redundancy mode for the storage system: set cache-parameters independent enable|disable Parameter Description Specifies the volume by its name or serial volume number.

This can happen if the host breaks up the random I/O into two smaller reads, triggering read ahead.
Page 115 Parameter Description Sets the cache redundancy mode for a dual- independent enable|disable controller storage system. enable sets the storage system’s operation mode to Independent Cache Performance Mode. When this mode is enabled, controller failover is disabled and write-back cache is not mirrored to the partner controller.

Create the Task There are three tasks you can create: , and TakeSnapshot ResetSnapshot VolumeCopy Perform the operation directly to ensure the command syntax is correct. For example, if you want to schedule taking a snapshot, first issue a command to take the snapshot and verify that it runs.
