Speaker: David Lytle(Brocade Communications Systems)

This session continues our deep dive into the Inner Workings and Hidden Mechanisms of z13 FICON Performance that began in the part 1 session.

This technical session goes into a deeper discussion on some of the design considerations of a z13 FICON I/O infrastructure. Among the topics this session will focus on how FICON utilizes buffer credits, bottleneck detection for conditions such as slow drain devices and other techniques for managing switched-FICON performance.

This is the second of two sessions, by this speaker, focusing on z13 FICON I/O infrastructure performance.

Tracks: Network Systems, New z13 and z Systems and Storage
