XP (12/10K, 512,1024) SAN Boot Disks on HP 11.11 Behaviour - Massive Disk Queuing but otherwise Ok?
But aside from the queueing throughput is very fast and there are no other problems. I can install/ignite my net_recovery_archive or Golden Image (average 8GB) to my SAN disks in under 20 minutes. It's just the queuing is so high but otherwise evrything is normal..

Re: XP (12/10K, 512,1024) SAN Boot Disks on HP 11.11 Behaviour - Massive Disk Queuing but otherwise Ok?
The LDEV(Lun) I am using is not a LUSE but an Open-V slice of a 300GB 6+2P aray group. It is sized 50GB of which 16GB is swap while the rest are for the OS and nothing else.
I tested with scsi qdepth set at 8, 16, 32, 64 with no difference in the queuing values either in glance or "sar -d". And no difference in the quickness of my ignite, patch application and software installs.
SAN boot ignitions (8GB Golden Image) to XP SAN LUNS (using Tachyon XL2 Cards - A6795?) averages 15-18 minutes. To A 15K SCSI (U320) SCSI disk on a DS21XX enclosure -- it is anywhere between 30 to 40 minutes.
But the real advantage is we can "easily" relocate environments to any compatible server or frame. I am as a matter of fact re-writing/re-archiecting my client's on-site DR as well as off-site DR (with a posible Dark Fibre on the horizon)...
Stay tuned.
I am however still puzzled by the queuing..

My XP BootLUN presented over dual 2G HBAs is sized 50GB. Using LVM and 16GB is allocated as primary swap.
