Tags: Proceedings, 2015, SHARE in Seattle 2015

With z/VM 6.3's ability to use up to 1 TB of real memory, it is time to revisit the question "What type of disk should I use for z/VM Paging?" This session will give some background on z/VM paging, a review of device options, and then look at real data from some work in this areas. Included will be discussion of how paging characteristics change under different workloads and circumstances.-Bill Bitner-IBM Corporation
