They do a lotta writes. A WHOLE Lotta writes. Even on a development system over 100,000,000 writes per day. The problem I mentioned earlier today was a Halcyon issue causing some jobs to run 10X longer than normal some even worse than that.

Open problem with them. Wiating for answers.

I'm finalizing my P7 to P9 upgrade plan.
One of the open issues are the SSD drives.

I'm currently running 3 Halcyon joblog monitors, which have a huge impact on Disk Total GB Written/Day.
There will be probably be more joblog monitors added, as needed.

These joblog monitors are the single, largest factor in estimating future SSD usage / life.

When the Halcyon joblog monitors are NOT running, I average 600gb Written/Day
When the Halcyon joblog monitors are running, Disk Total written/day jumps to 11,000gb written/day.

I've reopened my case CAS-0010098687 with Haclyon support.
There was also an enhancement request, CHGOB7B.
Waiting for answers.

Would any of the IBM catalogs/services be a possible improvement for the joblog monitor?
Any thoughts from the group relating to SSD configuration?

Thank You
