New white paper: HyperPAV setup with z/VM and Red Hat Linux on zSeries

Parallel Access Volume (PAV)  allow you on System z to have more than one I/O outstanding per volume. However it's not so easy to set up and maintain, so this is why there is HiperPAV, which is quite easy to install and maintain. And it's supported by all in service Linux distributions now.

The new white paper / howto "HyperPAV setup with z/VM and Red Hat Linux on zSeries" describes the step by step setup for HyperPAV for z/VM and zLinux. So if you are using ECKD disks and have any I/O performance problems - make sure you've implemented this.
