  • Performance Tuning with "nmon" – Use this WebWizard to start Performance Tuning your IBM pSeries running AIX. This WebWizard assues you are using a freely available and very useful tool called nmon – full detail on getting this are below. nmon – is strongly recommended as it provides all the AIX statistics constantly updated on a "dumb" screen.
  • IBM Performance Management for Power Systems : overview – Your IBM Power™ Systems model (including the IBM System i®, the IBM System p® and the new POWER6™ models) can be one of your company's most valued assets.

  • Repairing and re-registering the WMI – If you experience behavior when using WMI, such as application errors or scripts that used to work are no longer working, you may have a corrupted WMI repository. To fix a corrupted WMI repository, use these step…
  • Tuning the AIX file caches – Wikistix – By default, AIX is tuned for a mixed workload, and will grow its VMM file cache up to 80% of physical RAM. While this may be great for an NFS server, SMTP relay or web server, it is very poor for running any application which does its own cache management. This includes most databases (Oracle, DB2, Sybase, PostgreSQL, MySQL using InnoDB tables, TSM) and some other software (eg. the Squid web cache).

    Common symptoms include high paging (high pgspin and pgspout in topas), high system CPU time, the lrud kernel thread using CPU, slow overall system throughput, slow backups and slow process startup.

    For most database systems, the ideal solution is to use raw logical volumes. If this is not acceptable, then direct I/O and concurrent I/O should be used. If for some reason this is not possible, then the last solution is to tune the AIX file caches to be less aggressive
