Everyone, I know that if I am using hipersockets to communicate from a zLinux guest under zVM to a zOS LPAR, that I might be able to see improved performance if I increased the buffer_count from it's default of 16 to something higher.
I have seen information indicating if I have a directly attached OSA adapter to communicate with other systems, that I might be able to improve performance by increasing buffer_count. But what about a zLinux guest, is there likely to be any performance improvement if I increase the buffer_count for a device attached to a VSWITCH? Just wondering, Ron ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For LINUX-390 subscribe / signoff / archive access instructions, send email to [email protected] with the message: INFO LINUX-390 or visit http://www.marist.edu/htbin/wlvindex?LINUX-390 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For more information on Linux on System z, visit http://wiki.linuxvm.org/
