Yes, how to maximize parallelism is the pertinent question.

Determine virtual storage to be backed. Virtual to real (for that LPAR) no
greater than 3:1. This can be done by estimation or looking at RMF.
Allocate sufficient local page slots such that no single local page DS has more
than 30% of slots in use.
Spread these slots over and many devices/paths

Perhaps with a different twist, what problems are you trying to prevent :-)

I have been watching this discussion with interest.
For a short time I was a sysprog at a place that had DB2 and had one
small occurrence of page shortage due to a DB2 taking a dump. I asked
around and this as the first in anyones memory.
I thought for accuracy's sake I would run through a

Just push the Easy button? Unfortunately it's not located in easily
accessible location.
1)Hardware config WRT CPUs, CoD, Storage, ZIIPs, DASD, SSD
2)Software config WRT to Buffer use. Limiting non-production resources with
throttles.
3)Craig Mullin's DB/2 book is a good starting place.

we don't page much, and if we do it usually because there is a problem, or

You are being a little tough on me today. Maybe your summer is too warm?
