Melvyn,

Thanks for the info. They have also released a new version of the Patch Management guide for HPUX last week. It's got some of the new features of the ITRC in regards to patching in it...

Thanks Melvyn,

the first doc will help me understand memory management and the role of buffer cache in HP-UX better.
I think there will also be need for JFS tuning on some of our servers.
Last but not least, the patching guide also is a great source of help.

[Geoff Wild]

Very nice - just finshed reading them both - posted them on our Intranet.

I especially enjoyed the Semaphore section in "Common Misconfigured HP-UX Resources"

Hi there.
That thing is just in time.
We are considering to change the setup of one of our servers. That might a good help.
Thank you very much.

Melvyn,

I have to admit I already downloaded JFS_Tuning sometimes back in September.

I was wondering if anyone has measured the benefit of "Discovered Direct I/O". Any benchmark around ?
