11.2 RMF Monitoring
From a DB2 point of view, I/O flows between disk storage and buffer pools. I/O
activity can be modeled as a three-step process involving pathing from hosts to
storage servers, caching of storage server, and internal activity between cache
and physical disk storage. Therefore, to monitor I/O one must ask the following
questions:
Which paths do I/Os use, and what is their workload?
How efficient are the storage server cache algorithms for this workload?
What is the performance, service time, and/or response time, offered by the
storage server?
