Operating Systems Performance Tuning

    We have extensive experience in tuning IBM mainframe MVS and VM operating systems.

    Tuning activities have included optimization of storage utilization, I/O handling, scheduling algorithms and workload prioritization. Essential steps in this process are identification of critical applications, the characterization of workloads and understanding of service level objectives.

    The ability to measure system performance is critical. This includes the access to real-time on-line monitors (e.g. OMEGAMON, RMF Monitors) and historical data analysis tools (e.g. EPILOG, MICS, MXG). It is also very important to setup a Performance Management Process to ensure that you are aware of any potential problems before they strike!

    We have maintained an up-to-date knowledge in these fields by participating in conferences such as the Computer Measurement Group (CMG), reading publications such as Technical Support Magazine and Enterprise System Journal We have published papers in trade journals such as Enterprise Systems Journal. (Example: "An Experience in MVS Batch Tuning", August 1989 Mainframe Journal (now ESJ), by Patrick Gaul and Radik Gens and CMG proceedings).

    We will be happy to assist you with tuning of your operating system.
