This article demonstrates how performance with IBM AIX flash can drastically improve read requests from a storage subsystem by running performance benchmark tests. The test team experimented using different performance benchmarks and measured the performance data to demonstrate the variation with and without AIX flash cache.

In scenerios where tprof utility fails to resolve the addresses of the symbols, instead reports the symbols in hexadecimal format. This makes perfomance analysis difficult, since the symbols would not have resolved into meaningful function names. This article explains the way in which users can translate the unresolved address in a tprof profile report to meaningful function address using gensyms and dbx commands.

This article describes the Coherent Accelerator Processor Interface (CAPI) Flash support on IBM AIX. CAPI technology has been used on AIX to accelerate I/O operations to IBM Flash storage. AIX CAPI Flash driver stack has been optimized into a monolithic driver model which further reduced the I/O code path length. CAPI Flash technology provides a superior performance advantage in terms of IOPS per processor when compared to the traditional Fibre Channel I/O. We also describe at a high level how a user can use CAPI-based flash devices on AIX.
