Tuning your system for optimal performance
Fine-tuning your system
When fine-tuning your controller settings for optimal performance, consider the
applications that you intend to run on your server. Controller settings are usually
sensitive to the types of applications running on the server, not the server
workload or the number of users using the server. You must investigate your
application’s design, especially its input/output behavior, to make your decision.
When configuring your controller, your server application environment can
influence the following:
v The RAID level you select for your server
v The controller stripe-unit size setting
v The write-back cache mode setting
