12.2.7 New performance statistics
There are two new sets of performance statistics that will be reported by the DS6000. Since a
logical volume is no longer allocated on a single RAID rank with a single RAID type or single
device adapter pair, the performance data will be provided with a new set of rank
performance statistics and extent pool statistics. The RAID RANK reports will no longer be
reported by RMF and IDCAMS LISTDATA batch reports. RMF and IDCAMS LISTDATA is
enhanced to report the new logical volume statistics that will be provided on the DS6000.
These reports will consist of back-end counters that capture the activity between the cache
and the ranks in the DS6000 for each individual logical volume. The new rank and extent pool
statistics will be disk system wide instead of volume wide only.
SETCACHE
The DASD fast write attributes cannot be changed to OFF status on the DS6000. Figure 12-1
displays the messages you will receive when the IDCAMS SETCACHE parameters of
DEVICE, DFW, SUBSYSTEM, or NVS with OFF are specified.

All other parameters should be accepted as they are today on the IBM 2105. For example,
setting device caching ON is accepted, but has no affect on the subsystem.
12.2.8 Resource Measurement Facility (RMF)
RMF support for the DS6000 is added via an SPE (APAR number OA06476, PTFs UA90079
and UA90080). RMF is enhanced to provide Monitor I and III support for the IBM
TotalStorage DS family. The ESS Disk Systems Postprocessor report now contains two new
