Tune network options and interface parameters for maximum iSCSI I/O throughput on the AIX system as follows:
  • Enable the RFC 1323 network option.
  • Set up the tcp_sendspace, tcp_recvspace, sb_max, and mtu_size network options and network interface options to appropriate values. The iSCSI Software Initiator's maximum transfer size is 256 KB. Assuming that the system maximums for tcp_sendspace and tcp_recvspace are set to 262144 bytes, an ifconfig command used to configure a gigabit Ethernet interface might look like the following: ifconfig en2 10.1.2.216 mtu 9000 tcp_sendspace 262144 tcp_recvspace 262144
  • Set the sb_max network option to at least 524288, and preferably 1048576.
  • Set the mtu_size to 9000.
  • For some iSCSI targets, the TCP Nagle algoritm must be disabled for best performance. Use the no command to set the tcp_nagle_limit parameter to 0, which will disable the Nagle algorithm.

NAME
scconf_transp_adap_hme - configure the hme transport adapter DESCRIPTION
Note - Beginning with the Sun Cluster 3.2 release, Sun Cluster software includes an object-oriented command set. Although Sun Cluster software still supports the original command set, Sun Cluster procedural documentation uses only the object-oriented command set. For more infor- mation about the object-oriented command set, see the Intro(1CL) man page. You can configure hme Ethernet adapters as cluster transport adapters. These adapters can only be used with transport type dlpi. The hme Ethernet adapter connects to a transport switch or to another Ethernet adapter on a different node. In either case, the connection is made through a transport cable. When a transport switch is used and the endpoints of the transport cable are configured using scconf, scinstall, or other tools, you are asked to specify a port name on the transport switch. You can provide any port name, or accept the default, as long as the name is unique for the switch. The default is to set the port name to the node ID hosting the adapter at the other end of the cable. There are no user configurable properties for cluster transport adapters of this type. SEE ALSO
