It seems I may have introduced a bottleneck on my server by switching to "mirrorwrite db parrallel" and addig dbpageshadow. The default dbpageshadow file goes in with /usr/tivoli/tsm/server/bin, which is on my root vg (AIX server, 4.3.3 ML08). It is mirrored SCSI disks. I noticed last night that hdisk0 and hdisk1 are getting hammered, with little or no paging. The manual seems unclear whether I can specify a path before the filename or not. Also, I am unsure whether the file is needed in a disaster recovery scenario, when I have to restore my database. My gut says no, but I am not sure. Any ideas? What are other people doing? Thanks.
