We have a few AIX 5.3 machines attached to an IBM DS4300 SAN. Since another region is running the same applications on another machine attached to a Xiotech SAN and they were experiencing response issues and slow backup times, Xiotech recommended changing the queue-depth settings on the disk drives. Once this was done the performance increased dramatically. They went from a queue depth setting of 2 to 65.
Our corporate office wants us to try the same change, but I'm not sure we will reap any benefits from our IBM SAN. Has anyone else made these tweaks on a pSeries attached to an IBM SAN? If so, did it increase performance.
