Operating Systems AIX Network tuning parameters on AIX Post 302892023 by ibmtech on Monday 10th of March 2014 11:04:13 AM

chdev command is only for that adapter's interface (enX).
Whereas no will set the network tuning parameter across the board.

Example: If you have two interfaces (one primary 'entX', one for backups 'entY'), if you use no command the settings are reflected on both adapters interfaces (entX & entY). But if you use chdev -l entX -a XXX this setting is only reflected on the interface (enX) of that particular adapter (entX), and not on other adapter's interface.

Hope this make sense.

NAME
tunefstab - VxFS file system tuning parameters table DESCRIPTION
The file contains tuning parameters for VxFS file systems. sets the tuning parameters for mounted file systems by processing command line options or by reading parameters in the file. Each entry in is a line of fields in one of the following formats: block-device tunefs-options system-default tunefs-options block-device is the name of the device on which the file system is mounted. If there is more than one line that specifies options for a device, each line is processed and the options are set in order. In place of block-device, system-default specifies tunables for each device to process. If there is an entry for both a block-device and system-default, the system-default value takes precedence. Lines in that start with the pound (#) character are treated as comments and ignored. The tunefs-options correspond to the tunable parameters that and set on the file system. Each option in this list is a name=value pair. Separate the options by commas, with no spaces or tabs between the options and commas. See the vxtunefs(1M) manual page for a description of the supported options. EXAMPLES
If you have a four column striped volume, with a stripe unit size of 128 kilobytes per disk, set the and parameters 128 and four, respec- tively. You can do this in two ways: or: To set the discovered direct I/O size lower so that it is always lower than the default, add the following line to the file: FILES
