No experience.  I fact I'm learning from your experience.  While you say

"from my training at IBM that a cache hit rate of 99% and above is
recommended"

I found the following statement in the web interface.

The server database performs best with a cache hit ratio above 97% in the database 
bufferpool. To tune the bufferpool size, (a) reset the bufferpool statistics, (b) 
execute server operations that use the database, and (c) view the database details to 
see if the cache hit ratio is above 97%. If the cache hit ration is NOT above this 
percentage, increase the size of the BUFPOOLSIZE specification in the server options 
file.

Conflicting advice?  Perhaps your 97.7% is good and no problem exists.  Let's hear 
from others.  Please......

Hi all,

first I've to thank all participants for the amount of answers I got on my
latest questions. Now I've got a new one which relates on the
bufferpoolsize and the cache hit rate on OS/390 TSM-Servers.

we use the following bufpoolsize:  32768
our chache hit rate:            97,7 %

I know from my training at IBM that a cache hit rate of 99 % and above is
recommended. Is it possible, that a lower cache hit rate can cause
performance-problems? What is your experience?
