Faster way: SAN hd to SAN hd copying

hi! i got a rhel 6.3 host that already have an xfs filesystem mounted from a SAN (let's call it SAN-1) whose size is 9TB. i will be receiving another SAN (let's call it SAN-2) storage of 15TB size. this new addition is physically on another SAN storage. SAN-1 is on a Pillar storage while the new...

Procedure for removing SSA array

Hi All, What's the proper procedure for removing SSA arrays? Is the procedure like these? - rmdev ssa disk - physical turn off the ssa - cfgmgr There's no more filesystem or logical volume on it. It's just pdisk and hdisk. Thanks in advance, itik

Hi guys, I'd like to share my migration/mirroring of ssa to san. No downtime for users, probably I/O performance. here's the step: 1 After the lun had been carved on the SAN and the connections had been done on AIX fiber card 2 “lspv” and look for the new SAN hdisk? on the bottom, say...

Thoughts/experiences of SAN attaching V880 to EMC SAN

Hi everyone, I wonder if I can canvas any opinions or thoughts (good or bad) on SAN attaching a SUN V880/490 to an EMC Clarion SAN? At the moment the 880 is using 12 internal FC-AL disks as a db server and seems to be doing a pretty good job. It is not I/O, CPU or Memory constrained and the...

RS6000 SSA Raid question

Hi Can I add disks on the fly to extend the capacity of an existing RAID 5 volume? It's created on a 4P Advanced SSA Raid Adapter. I need to extend a volume group, so I figured it would be easiest to extend the "physical disk" which is a RAID5 volume. Thanks.

I386_PMC_INFO(2)					   BSD/i386 System Calls Manual 					  I386_PMC_INFO(2)

NAME

     i386_pmc_info, i386_pmc_startstop, i386_pmc_read -- interface to CPU performance counters

LIBRARY

     i386 Architecture Library (libi386, -li386)

SYNOPSIS

     #include <sys/types.h>
     #include <machine/sysarch.h>
     #include <machine/specialreg.h>

     int
     i386_pmc_info(struct i386_pmc_info_args *ia);

     int
     i386_pmc_startstop(struct i386_pmc_startstop_args *ssa);

     int
     i386_pmc_read(struct i386_pmc_read_args *ra);

DESCRIPTION

     These functions provide an interface to the CPU performance counters on the 586-class and 686-class processors.

     i386_pmc_info() will return information about the available CPU counters.	The information is returned in ia having the following structure:

     struct i386_pmc_info_args {
	     int     type;
	     int     flags;
     };

     The type member describes the class of performance counters available.  Valid values are:

	   PMC_TYPE_NONE    No PMC support
	   PMC_TYPE_I586    586-class CPUs
	   PMC_TYPE_I686    686-class Intel CPUs
	   PMC_TYPE_K7	    686-class AMD CPUs

     The flags member describes additional capabilities of the processor.  Valid values are:

	   PMC_INFO_HASTSC  CPU has time-stamp counter

     i386_pmc_startstop() is used to start and stop the measurement of the CPU performance counters.  The argument ssa has the following struc-
     ture:

     struct i386_pmc_startstop_args {
	     int counter;
	     uint64_t val;
	     uint8_t event;
	     uint8_t unit;
	     uint8_t compare;
	     uint8_t flags;
     };

     The counter specified by the member counter is started if the member flags has PMC_SETUP_KERNEL or PMC_SETUP_USER set, otherwise the counter
     is stopped.  The initial value of the counter is set to val.  Additional values for the flags member are PMC_SETUP_EDGE and PMC_SETUP_INV.
     The event member specifies some event written to the control register.  The unit member specifies the measurement units.  The compare member
     is a mask for the counter.

     i386_pmc_read() will return information about a specific CPU counter measured during the last measurement period determined by the calling of
     i386_pmc_startstop().  The information is returned in ra having the following structure:

     struct i386_pmc_read_args {
	     int counter;
	     uint64_t val;
	     uint64_t time;
     };

     The counter to read should be specified by the counter member.  Counters are numbered from 0 to PMC_NCOUNTERS.  The value of the counter is
     returned in the val member.  The time since epoch, measured in CPU clock cycles, is returned in the time member.

RETURN VALUES

     Upon successful completion zero is returned, otherwise -1 is returned on failure.
