Tuning the System with PUPIN or SCFIN 
In this final step of the procedure, you implement some of the GPA tuning recommendations 
by running a PUP INPUT file, PUPIN, or an SCF INPUT file, SCFIN, which GPA 
generates as part of its analysis. PUPIN/SCFIN contains commands for redistributing 
primary disk process paths and resetting disk volume cache allocations. (If you want to 
restore the system to its previous condition after you run PUPIN/SCFIN, you can do so 
with another PUP or SCF INPUT file, PUPBAK/SCFBAK.) Other GPA tuning 
recommendations are discussed in Section 4: Using GPA Information, under 
Implementing GPA Tuning Recommendations.  
  Caution 
Note that any changes in the disk primary CPU invoked by running GPA’s PUPIN or SCFIN 
file are not permanent and will not be in effect after a cold load.
