Has anyone (else) found they need to "manage" dump performance with e.g. DB2 ???. We had a dump storm a while back - over 30 DB2 dumps in a couple of minutes. Had to can the IRLM to hose it down. The SMS pool we use (only) for dumps filled in no time, so it saved us having to do anything - DAE was allowing them to proceed. Pool size might just be the best solution ...
