16.7.2 5XX Large system Hardware Configuration

570 7476 16 way - 256 GB Mainstore
DASD / 924 35GB arms 15K rpm arms,
RAID protected, 3 ASP's defined, majority of the DASD in ASP2 - Mainstore dump was to ASP 2
This system was tested with 2 TB of database files unrelated to this test, but this load causes a long
directory recovery.
595 7499 32-way - 384 GB Mainstore
DASD / 1125 35GB arms 15K rpm arms
RAID protected, 3 ASP's defined, majority of the DASD in ASP2 - Mainstore dump was to ASP 2
This system was tested with 4 TB of database files unrelated to this test, but this load causes a long
directory recovery.
Software Configuration
400,000 spool files (400,000 completed jobs with 1 spool files each)
1000 jobs waiting on job queues (inactive)
11000 active jobs in system during mainstore dump
200 remote printers
6000 user profiles
6000 libraries
Database:
25 libraries with 2600 physical files and 452 logical files
2 libraries with 10,000 physical files and 200 logical files
NOTE:
Physical files are explicitly journaled
Logical files are journaled using SMAPP set to *MIN
Commitment Control used on 20% of the files
