Agreed the question seems silly. However I recently on two identical brand new POWER8 servers running i 7.1 had a task that was VERY heavily I/O bound on all IFS work. On the one server the task took 78 seconds. On the other it took over 90. MINUTES.

IBM was not so friendly in helping. Performance data said that 100% of cache writes were failing (cache full). Despite the disk units being only about 5% busy, they sent the problem to hardware because 'it must be a bad cache battery'. (Not only was it not, there are none in the servers!) In the end the problem was not actually ever figured out BUT re-installing 5770SS1 option 3 suddenly solved the problem. Option 3 was flagged in error when we ran the network verify component of ARE. Oddly CHKPRDOP *OPSYS had NOT flagged this.

What could cause a variance of the simple execution of "JAVA *VERSION"


Different machine models? Wide difference in CPW ratings? Model 720 vs.
model 520?
