Check the setting of the qio_cache_enable flag for each file system using the vxtunefs command.
To obtain information on only the qio_cache_enable flag setting
Use the grep command with vxtunefs:
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxtunefs /mount_point | grep qio_cache_enable
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxtunefs /db01 | grep qio_cache_enable
where /db01 is the name of the file system. This command displays only the qio_cache_enable setting as follows:
qio_cache_enable = 0
You can also use the vxtunefs command to obtain a more complete list of I/O characteristics and tuning statistics.
# /opt/VRTS/bin/vxtunefs /db01
The vxtunefs command displays output similar to the following:
Filesystem i/o parameters for /db01 read_pref_io = 65536 read_nstream = 1 read_unit_io = 65536 write_pref_io = 65536 write_nstream = 1 write_unit_io = 65536 pref_strength = 10 buf_breakup_size = 1048576 discovered_direct_iosz = 262144 max_direct_iosz = 1048576 default_indir_size = 8192 qio_cache_enable = 1 write_throttle = 0 max_diskq = 1048576 initial_extent_size = 8 max_seqio_extent_size = 2048 max_buf_data_size = 8192 hsm_write_prealloc = 0 read_ahead = 1 inode_aging_size = 0 inode_aging_count = 0 fcl_maxalloc = 130150400 fcl_keeptime = 0 fcl_winterval = 3600
The vxtunefs(1) manual pages contain a complete description of vxtunefs parameters and the tuning instructions.
