Author Description
Insights, advice, and practical solutions for MVS performance analysts, system programmers, and DASD administrators who can use a detailed methodology for analyzing existing I/O configurations, identifying problems, and designing I/O configurations to enhance system performance in System/390 environments. Treating I/O issues from channel control words at the micro level to configuration design at the macro level, this book discusses design options, measurement techniques for identifying problems, and modeling techniques for determining strengths and weaknesses of possible alternatives.

Menrva's Summary
THE THESIS
This text investigates the methodologies required to optimize I/O subsystem performance and configuration management within MVS and System/390 environments. Authors Gilbert E. Houtekamer and H. Pat Artis leverage their extensive technical expertise to provide a comprehensive framework for system programmers and administrators. The book bridges the gap between micro-level channel control operations and macro-level configuration design to ensure efficient data throughput and system stability.
THE SCOPE MAP
What You Will Find
- Detailed analysis of I/O configuration design options
- Measurement techniques for identifying performance bottlenecks
- Modeling methodologies for evaluating system alternatives
- Examination of channel control words and DASD administration
Scope Limits
- Focus is restricted to MVS and System/390 environments
