Hello Jim,

To answer the original post, this allows the OP to manage how much memory is used for I/O on each hosted environment, within the hosting system.

Yeah. But since the guest LPAR also has memory being used as cache, and bringing the data as close to the where it is processed eventually should be beneficial, yes?

My intended question was: Is this partitioning of memory into pools (on the hosting side) still relevant, while very modern nowadays machines are equipped with memory in large amounts, and running from extremely performant NVMe?

I manage several systems using these techniques and I would argue they are the current professional standard for anything but the smallest system.

Did you configure these so because you *think* it should be done for the reasons you outlined? Or did you take actual measurements to prove that your thinking had positive effects at all? Or possibly learn that the difference is negligible — something I assume for now with my limited experience with large systems enduring considerable workload?

Again, no offense intended. I'm just curious and want to understand.

:wq! PoC
