TSM Tuning on RedHat server

[Stephan]

Hi.

Is there anything i should look for in a TSM server 5.3.5, running on RED HAT server 4 as far as tuning options?

Some TSM tuning i should make sure are Ok, some REDHAT tuning i should check?

thanks.

Maybe full memory usage, like under Aix with the Ulimit parameter. (ulimit -m unlimited).

It could be helpfull if bufpoolsize is set to 1Go by exemple.

Thanks. I did increase my bufpoolsize as my server was 'trashing'. Seems to have helped since it has not 'trashed' since...

A ulimit -a shows this:

core file size (blocks, -c) 0
data seg size (kbytes, -d) unlimited
file size (blocks, -f) unlimited
pending signals (-i) 1024
max locked memory (kbytes, -l) 32
max memory size (kbytes, -m) unlimited
open files (-n) 1024
pipe size (512 bytes, -p) 8
POSIX message queues (bytes, -q) 819200
stack size (kbytes, -s) 10240
cpu time (seconds, -t) unlimited
max user processes (-u) 98304
virtual memory (kbytes, -v) unlimited
file locks (-x) unlimited


Any improvement to be made there?

Thanks.

No, i think it's ok for RH part.

BTW, u should have a look to the "TSM Tunning Guide" provided by IBM.

Good Luck.
