System options that affect performance

The following system options affect performance, which you can enable and disable:

Swap & Freeze. Enable this system option to suppress copy operations (the S-VOLs to remain
unchanged) during pair restoration using Quick Restore. Differential data is not copied to the
new S-VOL.

HOST I/O Performance. Enable this system option to suppress copy operations regardless of
the workload and to maximize I/O performance.

NOTE:

This system option increases the copy time, which slows copy operations.

Copy Threshold. (For BC/SS, BC Z, Compatible FlashCopy, FS, and Auto LUN) Enable this
system option to temporarily suppress copy operations when the XP7 storage system’s workload
is heavy and to maximize host I/O performance during peak periods.

NOTE:

A service representative must enable this system option.

Copy Pace. Enable this system option to determine the rate at which the XP7 storage system
copies data, to suppress copy processing, and to maximize host I/O performance.

Use one of the following processing-suppression/performance-improvement levels:

(FC Z and FCSE only) FC Slower Copy1

(FC Z and FCSE only) FC Slower Copy2

Copy Pace Ext. Slower1. This is the third most effective
processing-suppression/performance-improvement level.

Copy Pace Ext. Slower2. This is the second most effective
processing-suppression/performance-improvement level.

Copy Pace Ext. None. This is the most effective
processing-suppression/performance-improvement level. This level stops copy processing.
