zVM 4.4 Migration into zSeries z/890

Hi list. I currently have a z/VM 4.4 and our first goal is to migrate it into our new zSeries processor (z/890 2086 A04 230). I have requested IBM Service for getting the required APARs PTFs to make this possible. The problem I have (after having taken a look at the z/VM 4.4 Service Guide) is

MTU consideration for dummy/eth interfaces

Guys, I've configured two ethernet interfaces with a dummy interface in order to have an High Availability network. I'm using Zebra for dynamic routing. I was able to work with this system only changing the ethernet MTU from 1492 (Linux default) to 1500... Seems related to my router configuration

Re: I want to conifrm VSWITCH's MTU size.

2005-06-09 Thread Ingo Adlung
It is the (virtual) network infrastructure that imposes the payload restrictions, hence the MTU size. I case of QDIO the VSWITCH supports any MTU the attached (coupled) vNICs support, too. If you use a VSWITCH to interconnect guest virtual NICs with a distributed switched fabric over OSA Express,

I wasn't really talking about the latency, but of the overhead of breaking data down and put it in packets, with header info, etc, transmitting thru/to another process which reads the header, reconstruct the data just to turn around it write it to tape. Right? Write to tape is still faster
