Designing for DB2 Data z/OS DFSMS Implementing System-Managed Storage SC23-6849-00 |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||
DB2® system and recovery data
sets can benefit from dual copy service for the following reasons:
Recommendation: Do not
use the guaranteed space attribute to specify volumes to separate
the partitions of a DB2 table
space. You can avoid using the guaranteed space attribute in the following
situations:
Table 1 shows the relationship between the data set, data type, and LLQ that identifies the data set in the storage class ACS routine.
The active logs can benefit from DASD fast write and cache services, because DB2 transactions can wait for logging before completing. The access reference pattern for the database can affect the caching or DASD fast write benefits for production databases. The DFSMS I/O statistics provide long term measurement of data set accesses, response components, and cache statistics. They can be used in application tuning or batch window reduction. You can benefit significantly from I/O priority scheduling in a mixed workload environment. For example, to achieve consistent response times for transaction processing, you can prioritize transaction processing reads above query reads and DB2 asynchronous writes. Table 2 shows the relationship between the data set, data type, and LLQ that identifies the data set in the storage class ACS routine.
The access reference pattern for the database can affect the caching benefits for production DB2 databases. Table 3 summarizes this result.
The sample configuration has the following storage class assignments:
All other DB2 data sets are assigned the STANDARD storage class. Refer to Table 1 for the list of attributes associated with these storage classes. |
