Jack, There is an IBM Redbook, "Experiences with Oracle for Linux on zSeries" http://www.redbooks.ibm.com/redbooks/pdfs/sg246552.pdf
The abstract lists this as the table of contents: 1. Overview of Oracle9i on zSeries 2. How to deploy Oracle9i on Linux/390 3. Installing Oracle9i database on zSeries with Linux 4. Creating multiple Linux virtual machines with shared Oracle binaries under z/VM 5. Migrating Oracle9i to Linux for zSeries 6. Using RMAN to handle backup and recovery 7. Installing and configuring Oracle Enterprise Manager 8. Performance and scalability considerations 9. Using Statspack to collect VMSTAT information 10. Implementing RAC on Oracle9i on Linux on zSeries 11. Using WebSphere with Oracle9i Mark Post -----Original Message----- From: jack sprat [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Sunday, August 17, 2003 2:02 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Question on Lessons learned on tuning Oracle on Linux under z/VM I have read the quality of commitments that has come from this group and if any single group would have this information it would be you. Has anyone compiled a list of Initora parameters that impact Oracle 9i performance on zSeries Linux under z/VM? Is their any _parameters that anyone is aware of? Does anyone have a list of zSide tuning requirements to minimize bottleneck as it relates to Oracle performance? Thank you in advance.
