ADD PROFILE Command
NONAUDITEDINSERT { ON | OFF }
(magnetic disks) specifies whether nonaudited insert mode is enabled (ON) or
disabled (OFF).
NUMDISKPROCESSES number
is the number of disk processes allocated for the disk. number is in the range 1
through 8. The default is 4.
Specifying fewer than 4 disk processes conserves memory but could decrease
system performance. Specifying more than 4 disk processes requires more
memory but could improve performance. The effect on your system depends on
your applications and the disk traffic they create.
OSSCACHING { ON | OFF }
specifies whether caching for Open System Services (OSS) files is ON or OFF.
The default is ON.
PHYSVOLSELECT { ON | OFF }
specifies whether a virtual disk process can consider this physical volume for file
placement. This attribute is valid only when this physical volume is a member of a
storage pool.
POOL { $pool | EXCLUDE }
specifies whether a physical volume is a member of a specified storage pool.
ON enhances performance by buffering insertions to entry-sequenced
files or relative-sequenced files that do not have the REFRESH
attribute set and are open with a SYNCDEPTH greater than 0. This
feature is known as nonaudited insert mode.
However, the resulting reduction in the frequency of label updates
potentially increases the probability of data loss in the event of a
double disk failure.
OFF Nonaudited insert mode is disabled (default). This forces write
inserts, which increases EOF.
ON A virtual disk process can consider this physical volume for file
placement (default).
OFF A virtual disk process cannot consider this physical volume for file
placement, regardless of the information supplied in a command.
If PHYSVOLSELECT is OFF, the value of AUTOSELECT
(page 14-35) is ignored.
$pool adds the physical volume to the specified storage pool.
EXCLUDE removes a disk from a storage pool.
