Now that's interesting!
Congrats with the performance! Told you you'll get better performance out of that EVA...
I wasn't aware your systems were factory installed...
Out of lots of previous little funnies and gremlins with pre-loaded LPAR's (with or without VIO) - I've always adapted the standard to reinstall FRESH with my own media and my own settings. Works every time!
NIM still seems to give problems sometimes, with the bootpd but other than that it is fine....
FROM:
Test I have run are as follows.
Disk write test using VSCSI device to SAN on DLPAR - 16MByte/s
Disk write test using SAN attached disk on VIO - 27MByte/s
Disk write test using SAS attached local disk - 55MBytes/s.
To: Now I am getting 220MBytes/second throughtput
Seems like your performance improvement from the initial tests has increased 92.72% - 75% Nice!
