16.3.2 Large system Hardware Configurations

9406-MMA 7056 8 way - 96 GB Mainstore
DASD / 432 70GB 15K rpm arms,
3 ASP's defined, 108 RAID5 DASD in ASP1, 288 RAID5 DASD in ASP2, 36 DASD no protection in
ASP3 - Mainstore dump set to ASP 2
This system was tested with database files unrelated to this test covering 30% of the DASD space
available, this database load causes a long directory recovery.

3 ASP's defined, 196 Nonconfigured DASD, 120 RAID5 DASD in ASP1, 612 RAID5 DASD in ASP2,
72 DASD no protection in ASP3 - Mainstore dump set to ASP 2
This system was tested with database files unrelated to this test covering 30% of the DASD space
available, this database load causes a long directory recovery.
Software Configuration
