We have HyperPAV implemented on one test box. It is actually working fine.
Only the WLM dynamic PAV is not working (on the rest of the dasd farm).
Still working with IBM support. They are a little stumped so far, but have
been able to find that the root problem is that the DBVT (Device Block

RMF reports are showing me that there have been zero changes to our alias
assignments for the past couple weeks. Lickily our PAVs are currently spread
out enough over the production UCBs that we have not had terrible
performance

Has anyone experienced all dynamic PAV activity just stopping?
Check both your IODF WLM policy.
Both have to have PAV turned on.
If one doesn't, then it won't be active.
We implemented dynamic, aeons ago, in the following manner:
1. Assign one alias to each volume (we had enough at the time).
The MCLs were applied on May 2.

LS,
More important is your IOSQ time increasing ? Are the number of PAV adresses
insufficient ?

The OP said he was fine, for now.
But, I/O patterns do change, over the day, and over time.
I still think the IODF and the WLM policy should be checked to see if it's
enabled in both.
It may be; it is

Indeed, and that may be exactly what happened: a change to the workload
eliminated or reduced volume contention such that PAV redistribution is no
longer needed.
I didn't say a change to the workload.
I said a change to WLM or IODF.

Ah, but you did:
But, I/O patterns do change, over the day, and over time.
And I agree with that as well the rest of your excellent advise.
I guess I wasn't clear.
I find it difficult to believe that not a single PAV was re-assigned in a month.
That was the purpose of my 'pattern' statement.
Yea, we checked the IODF and the WLM policy. No changes there. Last IODF
change was earlier in April and everything is still set for PAV in there and in
the WLM policy.
I liked the idea of reactivating the policy, but I checked and we have
activated new policies with minor changes a couple

All I said was: check it out!
Never said it was the issue.
