Use JFS2 file systems for Tivoli® Storage
Manager in most
cases. Examine the queue depth for disks that are in use.
Procedure
Use JFS2 file systems for the Tivoli Storage
Manager database,
recovery logs, and disk storage pools, unless you are using disk for
LAN-free operations. If you are using disk for LAN-free operations,
then use General Parallel File System (GPFS™)
for the shared storage pools.
Use the JFS2 rbrw option
on the mount command, especially if Tivoli Storage
Manager database
backups are stored to a FILE device class.
The default queue depths for non-IBM disks that are used
for Tivoli Storage
Manager are
often low by default. If the queue depth is less than 32, see the
documentation for the disk system or contact the manufacturer about
guidelines for the queue depth. To change the queue depth, see the AIX® documentation at http://www.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/ssw_aix.
