IV53135: SVGS USE ONLY 254 MWC RECORDS INSTEAD OF 510 APPLIES TO AIX 5300-12

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Scalable Volume Groups use 254 MWC records instead of 510
  during writes.
  

Local fix

Problem summary

• SVGs are only using 254 mwc rec entries instead of the
  potential 510 that we allocate space for.  The affect of this
  is that for active MWC LVs, you can essentially only be writing
  to 254 LTGs at once instead of 510.  This could be limiting
  performance capabilities with some workloads.
  

Problem conclusion

• Correct mwc rec size definitions to properly use all 510
  slots.
  

Temporary fix
