Greetings, correct the 2.1.1 release is fully supported and has a very
long life ahead.

I think your BP is dyslexic. 1.1.2 maybe. I don't think so for 2.1.1.

We own DB2 Web Query and have active support for 5733WQX v2r1m1. I
installed the licensed program and it asked me for a license. Contacted
our BP about getting the license, and they said IBM is dropping support
in
September. Has anyone heard where IBM's going with this? I don't want
to
start using a product that's going to be dropped in less than a year.

subject: Perf difference between EJ0L PCIe3 12GB Cache RAID SAS
Adapter vs integrated EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8

Because the P8 S824 CEC DASD must be controlled by the integrated EJ0J
PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8,
I would like to know how much of a performance difference there would be
seen between the EJ0L PCIe3 12GB Cache RAID SAS Adapter vs integrated
EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8?
I'm looking for the best possible performance on an R&D LPAR, with a
mixture of SSD/HDD.
All SSD is out of the question.
System ASP would be all SSD (hot data), 3.1 TB to start, possibly
larger.
ASP2 would be all HDD, (cold data) 25 TB or 36 TB, depending on config
option.
The various BRMS tools would be used to force cold data to ASP2, or HDD.

I have several options for this R&D LPAR, which will also be hosting a
sandbox LPAR and a DSLO LPAR only used to create DSLO images for OS
upgrades.
I've opted not to use the SSD cage, SSD capacity would not be large
enough.

Option 1
Place 18 1.7TB 10K RPM SAS in the CEC, ASP2, (lesser used) controlled by
integrated EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8
Place 6+ 775GB SFF-2 4k SSD in EXP24S, System ASP, controlled by EJ0L
PCIe3 12GB Cache RAID SAS Adapter
This option would result in the best performance with an HDD/SSD
mixture, keeping each drive type on separate controllers per
recommendation, but also with an extra cost factor.

Option 2
Place 18 1.7TB 10K RPM SAS in the CEC, ASP2, (lesser used) controlled by
integrated EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8
Place 6+ 775GB SFF-2 4k SSD in EXP24S, System ASP, also controlled by
integrated EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8
This option would give up performance, still allow HDD/SSD mixture, but
save the cost of 2 EJ0L.

Option3
Place 6+ 775GB SFF-2 4k SSD in the CEC, System ASP, controlled by
integrated EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8
Place 24 1.7TB 10K RPM SAS in an EXP24S, ASP2, (lesser used) also
controlled by integrated EJ0J PCIe3 RAID SAS Adapter Quad-port 6Gb x8
Performance should be the same as option 2, would result in larger HDD,
ASP2, still allow HDD/SSD mixture, but save the cost of 2 EJ0L.

Any thoughts from the group?

Thank You
