Hi All,

 

I guess I will have to live with it. At the moment the destaging kicks off
about 40 jobs writing to two LTO5 drives. I was just hoping to make it
faster, but maybe it's alright the way it is. Oh, well.

 

Thank all of you for your answers and inspirations.

 

Regards,

Is there a way to do the above? If so how?

 

Short answer:  no.

 

Longer answer:  It's been requested multiple times and is being considered
for a future release.

 

There are ways to configure yourself around these limitations by configuring
more storage units and reducing the maximum size of a destage run to force
it to kick off more jobs.  Then you'll run into issues on saturating your
disk subsystem...  With an LTO-4 taking up to 400MB/sec of well-compressable
data, how many of those streams can your disks take?
