Other Notes

There are 48 disks on the SSA disk controller used for 42 test filesystems.
8 disks per logical disk volume (6 logical disk volumes total): 1 disk
contains filesystem logs, and each of the other 7 contain filesystem data.
Using jumbo frames (9000-byte MTU) over Gigabit Ethernet.
Server tuning: Gigabit Ethernet adapter jumbo_frames=yes; vmtune -P 100,
vmtune -r 0 -R 0, nfs_server_base_priority=80, nfs_server_clread=0,
nfs_max_threads=84, nfs_socketsize=800000
Client tuning: Gigabit Ethernet adapter jumbo_frames=yes
APAR IY06844 required on AIX 4.3.3 (9/99 release) for hardware support.
