VSP G1000 Mainframe Features

FEATURE DESCRIPTION

FLASHCOPYPERFORMANCEIMPROVEMENTS

FlashCopy and related TrueCopy and HUR performanceimprovements.

TPC-R AND BASICHYPERSWAP

The ability to configure 2 and 3 data center environmentsusing Tivoli Storage Productivity Center for Replication(TPC-R) and automate HyperSwap between sites andcontrol units within the same center.

TPC-R SUPPORT

FOR METROMIRRORFAILOVER

/FAILBACK

Enable Hitachi storage devices to participate in theautomation of HyperSwaps between local sites(synchronous distances) and within the same datacenter.


20/35


FEATURE DESCRIPTION

HTSM SupportMicrocode release adds support for HTSM

HierarchicalMemory (VMA)

Enables larger number of bitmaps as well as supportlarger volumes and LUNs by using a new hierarchicalapproach. Bitmap information will spread across localprocessor memory, (traditional share memory), anddisk drives

1TB (EAV)

EXTENDEDADDRESSVOLUME

1TB EAV is a volume with more than 65,520 cylinders.

EAV increases the amount of addressable DASD storage per volume beyond 65,520 cylinders by changing howtracks on ECKD volumes are addressed


21/35


FEATURE DESCRIPTION

Z/HPFBSAM QSAM

System z High-Performance FICON (zHPF) supports additionalworkloads using QSAM and BSAM access methods.

Z/HPFFORMATWRITE

zHPF format writes this function speeds DB2 loads,reorganizations, index rebuilds, and database restores. Additionally, DB2 load throughput with DB2 9 and 10 increasesas much as 52 percent using 4K pages.

Z/HPF ANDDB2 I/O

All DB2 I/O can convert to zHPF. When z/OS preformats DB2data sets, zHPF enables a 15-to-2 reduction in the number ofI/Os an especially signification reduction when used withsynchronous replication technologies such as peer-to-peerremote copy


22/35


FEATURE DESCRIPTION

Z/HPFDB2 LISTPREFETCH

With FICON Express8S, zHPF DB2 list prefetch reduceschannel connect time by up to 2.5 times. DB2 10 uses listprefetch for disorganized index scans.

Z/HPF BI-DIRECTIONALCHANNELPROGRAM

DB2 exploitation of zHPF will improve performance byallowing Media Manager to exploit bidirection zHPF I/Osupport

Z/HPFLISTPREFETCHOPTIMIZER

zHPF List Prefetch Optimizer is used by DB2 technology to exploitthe ability of the System z I/O architecture to read discontinuousdisk segments in single I/O operations


23/35


FEATURE DESCRIPTION

GDPS PPRCSUM

When compared to reporting suspensions on a per-devicesbasis, the Summary Event Notification for PPRC Suspends(PPRCSUM) dramatically reduces the message traffic andextraneous processing associated with PPRC suspensionevents and freeze processing

GDPSHYPERSWAPStorageControl HealthMessage

This new attention message will be generated from thehardware, 1 per corresponding logical storage system, toalert the operating system of a condition that in the pastwould have surfaced as a general equipment check. This

message will give more details and is intended to reduce thenumber of false HyperSwap events that have occurred withthe less descriptive equipment check


24/35


FEATURE DESCRIPTION

QUALIFICATIONTESTING WITH IBM

Hitachi works with IBM to perform

Qualify GDPS/HyperSwap with PPRC with GlobalMirror (XRC) with Hitachi compatible FlashCopy andFlashCopy Space Efficient, HDP, and HDT

Qualify GDPS/HyperSwap with 3 Data Center with

Delta Resync and BCM along FlashCopy andFlashCopy Space Efficient, HDP, and HDT
