Each DS4400 contains 2 controllers. Each controller is connected to an FC adapter. Each controller has a 1GB cache. Writes to either cache are mirrored in the other such that the total effective write cache is 1GB per DS4400. <> There are 5 EXP700 expansion units connected to each DS4400. Every EXP700 contains 14 physicaldisks. A logical disk is composed of 5 physical disks in a RAID-5 configuration. There is one test file system per logical disk. <> <> Enhanced JFS is used for OS and the test filesystems (F1-F84). The size of each test filesystem log is 256MB. <> <> DCM stands for Dual-Chip Module, one dual-core processor chip plus one L3-cache chip. <> <> SMT stands for Simultaneous Multi-Threading. SMT is a processor technology that allows the simultaneous execution of multiple thread contexts within a single processor core. SMT enabled is the default mode of operation. <> <> Using jumbo frames (9000-byte MTU) over Gigabit Ethernet. <> <> There were 4 external 7311-D11 I/O drawers used in this configuration. 3 drawers contained 2 Gigabit Ethernet and 4 Fiber Channel adapters. 1 drawer contained 2 Gigabit Ethernet adapters. <> <> Server tuning: Gigabit Ethernet adapter jumbo_frames=yes, nfs_server_base_priority=80, nfs_server_clread=0, lru_file_repage=0, kernel_heap_psize=65536 <> <> Client tuning: Gigabit Ethernet adapter jumbo_frames=yes <> <> The number of NFS daemons (nfsd threads) is dynamic. <> <> APAR IY81057 applied on AIX 5L V5.3 to achieve Maintenance Level 4, Service Pack 1. =============================================================================== Generated on Tue Feb 28 16:33:00 EST 2006 by SPEC SFS97 ASCII Formatter Copyright (c) 1997-2004 Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation
