I believe that an lsfs -q or -a should show you that CIO is enabled.

remount the filesystem and then run the mount command with no flags and you will see the option in the output. to test if cio is working ok, then time a cp command of a 1MB file then do the same using dd with a 1MB block size .. you will see the dd runs abotut 7 times faster than the cp command.

what db you using ? if db2 then you should turn cio on for the tablespace rather than the mount option as normal operations within the cio mounted filesystem could cuase you a headache .. check the docs etc..

JFS2 using CIO

« on: November 16, 2006, 08:22:57 PM »

I have turned CIO [Concurrent I/O] on my Database JFS2 filessystem using

chfs -a options=cio <JFS2 Filesystem Name>

I would like to confirm if the JFS2 filesystem is really set to CIO, how do I check? [I couldn't install lsof on my enviroments]
