Could you explain the limitation?
Do you mean limit of logical paths per chpid? Caution: it depends on the
controller, different limits can be in case of HDS Lightning and EMC DMX.
Regarding switches - this is first time I heard the use of switches
change the limit.
In simple scenario, # of logical paths is # of LPARs attached to the CU
port (in the DASD box, not in CPC) x # of LCUs:
#LPs=#LPARs x #LCUs
Note: when using switches it is possible to attach more CPCs (and maybe
more LPARs) to the CU port.

The total number of paths must be kept at 256 or less.
With 2 cascading directors:
(LPAR <-> CNTRL1) * (CNTRL1 <-> CNTRL2) * (CNTRL2 -> DASD).
4 * 8 * 8 would be 256.
With a single director 16 * 16 is possible but not usually needed.

We have a new IBM DS8870 that I have to define to the IODF. We are going to
have (16) 2107 type LCU's controllers and about 3k total devices defined to
those 16 LCU's. We also have 16 FICON channels available to use, I was thinking
about defining 8 channels to each LCU.
We currently have 4 channels defined to each LCU on our existing Shark device.
We do not experience any IO delays or contention with this config.
My experience in this area as you can tell is a little limited. As far as
channels are concerned is the motto 'the more the merrier' apply here? Or
should I follow the existing standard of 4 channels to each LCU? Any standard
to follow?
Thanks Matt
