Executive OverviewIBM z/OS V1R13 provides improvements to shared file system performance in a Sysplex environment. The Advanced Technical Skills (ATS) organization in Gaithersburg, Maryland designed a test to see how well these improvements actually performed.

The test involved a WebSphere Application Server z/OS environment build across two z/OS R13 LPARs, with multiple servers and multiple servants1. In successive tests we routed SYSPRINT and SYSOUT output from all those regions to unshared UNIX file systems, shared UNIX file systems, and JES spool. For good measure we turned on full tracing for the WAS servers so the output would provide sufficient stress to the output destinations.

Important: This was not a system stress test nor a full scalability test. Please do not consider it as such.

This test was designed to perform a reasonable comparison of shared file system and unshared file system to validate the z/OS R13 improvements.

Performance varies based on many factors. Your results may be different.

This study's findings showed the following:

There was no appreciable difference in elapsed time or CPU time to initialize the servers and have them idle (and produce full tracing output) for the data capture interval for unshared file systems compared to shared file systems

From that our conclusion is:

In the past we have recommended against shared file systems for a multi-LPAR WAS z/OS configuration. That recommendation was based on well-known shared file system performance issues.

With z/OS V1R13 performance enhancements to shared file systems now allows customers to use shared file systems for their WAS z/OS configuration if they wish. The option to use shared file system for WAS z/OS with z/OS V1R13 is now viable2.

Or, in picture format:

1 See "Test environment" on page 6 for a description and illustration of the WAS z/OS setup.2 Customers currently running with separate unshared file systems should continue with that configuration for existing environments. There

is no reason to move from unshared to shared for existing configurations. Using shared file systems for new configurations may now be considered.




z/OS R13 Shared File System Impact Study Overview and ResultsFor years we have recommended that WebSphere customers make certain that the file systems that are used by servers on an LPAR (node) are owned by the LPAR on which the node is running:

Figure 1 - Previous recommendation concerning separate file systems owned by respective LPARs

Over the years we have dealt with a number of file system related performance problems:

File System Issue Recommended Solution

File system for a node owned by another z/OS system in the Sysplex. This would result in poor write operation performance

which typically showed as slow server startup times.

Remount the file system so it is owned by the z/OS system on which the node runs.

Nodes on different z/OS systems configured to write to a shared file system. This would show as one node performing relatively

less well than the other nodes.

Reconfigure the file systems so that each node would have it own, and each node's

file system was owned by the z/OS system on which the node ran.

In summary, for years we recommended separate unshared file systems for each node because shared file systems looked better on paper than they were in reality.

In z/OS R11 an attempt was made to provide better managed and better performing shared file systems in the sysplex environment. But the improvements were not sufficiently successful. The advice we had given for years did not change. We continued to tell customers to configure unshared configuration file systems and to make certain the file systems were owned by the z/OS system on which the node operated.




With z/OS R13 further improvements were made to better manage shared file systems. It seemed like a good opportunity to test the improvements and see how well shared WAS z/OS configuration file systems performed. That was the catalyst for this study.

Test environment

To test the z/OS R13 performance improvements in shared file system write operations we built a two-LPAR WAS z/OS environment and routed all the SYSPRINT and SYSOUT output to ZFS rather than JES3. Further, we set tracing to *=all to have the WAS servers write a lot of ouput.

Figure 2 - WAS z/OS configuration used during this shared file system test

Notes: This test was not designed to stress the CP or memory limits of the system. The memory and CP configuration was set high to avoid contention in those areas.

The Service Integration Bus (SIbus) was configured to create the Control Region Adjunct (CRA) so that all the possible server components would be represented and writing output: CR, SR and CRA.

Each server was configured with three servant regions to allow for more output to be written from each server.

Test scenarios

We needed to compare to scenarios to test the write performance improvements in z/OS R13: one a baseline with unshared ZFS and the second the comparison test with shared ZFS4:

3 This test was a better test of the overall file system performance than simply building a shared file system cell and starting the servers. Server startup is largely a read operation and that by itself would not adequately stress write operations. Hence this environment where the SYSPRINT and SYSOUT for the WAS cell was routed to a file system. That resulted in a great deal of write operations.

4 For information on the file systems we used, see "File System Information" on page 9.




Figure 3 - Unshared file system baseline versus shared file system

The following graphic illustrates the sequence of activities, the capture interval, and the focus of the analysis once the numbers had been collected:

Figure 4 - Test activity sequence, data capture interval and objectives

Some notes about this:

• The composition of the activities within this interval is less important than the comparison of the same activities in an unshared environment versus a shared environment. That's what would tell the story of the shared file system performance improvements.

• The server startup took less than 3 minutes. That means less than 3 minutes out of the 10 minute interval involved server startup activity. Still, there was trace output activity in idle servers during this time, and there was chatter among the 26 address spaces spread across the two systems during this 10 minutes.




• Using a 10 minute window was simply a convenient way of getting a rough estimate of the CPU time and elapsed time impact of using a shared file system for all server components versus system dedicated file systems.

• We were interested in how long the 4 application servers on the two systems took to initialize, based on elapsed time as reported by the control region. We looked at the job start time to the time the message BBOO0247I was issued to get the measure of the impact on elapsed time.

• We were interested in the total CPU consumption in the two LPARs as reported by RMF. This way we caught all the CPU time used during initialization of the control regions, servant regions and adjunct regions. In addition, we got the CPU time used by XCF and ZFS to deal with its cross system issues. Yes, we also got all the other system tasks, but again, nothing else was running in the LPARs other than WAS z/OS, the normal system tasks like TCP and RRS, and a TSO user watching over it all.

• Finally, we were interested in the XCF traffic between the two systems as reported by RMF. If the writes were not being function shipped to one system, then there should not be a huge amount of XCF traffic in the case where a shared file system is used by all cell components.

Test results

The following table summarizes the results5:

Metric Non-Shared File Systems Test6 Shared File System Test7

Output Written ~165 million lines of output~ 9 billion bytes of

~165 million lines of output~ 9 billion bytes of

CPU usage 1017 CPU seconds 1009 CPU seconds

Server start elapsed time Between 2:15 and 2:35 Approximately 2:30

XCF activity 35 messages for IOEZFS18K messages for GRS

64K messages for IOEZFS18K messages for GRS

Conclusion

With z/OS R13 the differences between non-shared file systems and shared file systems are small. The CPU usage was essentially the same and the server start time was essentially the same as well. With a shared file system the XCF activity for IOEZFS was more, but this is to be expected.

The bottom line is that the previous recommendation for separate unshared file systems for WAS z/OS is no longer required. The z/OS R13 enhancements have allowed unshared and shared to operate at essentially the same level of performance.

Those customers running with separate unshared file systems for each node should continue with that policy for their existing cells. New cells may be considered for shared configuration file systems provided z/OS V1R13 or later is in use.

5 In case you're curious, we did run a test comparing output to JES spool. The results were essentially the same as for output to a file system. Of course, JES has advantages beyond simply performance: better archival and manageability.
