Some Highlights:
ZFS Best Practices For SAP ASE Database:
- Create separate zpools for data and the transaction log.
- Create zpool for data using multiple LUNs for better I/O bandwidth.
- ZFS record size for data is one of key parameters for optimal performance. The default value of 128K is too large and causes page overhead. For Solaris SPARC systems with the DB page size of 8K or less, a ZFS record size of 32K provides the best performance for both file system block and raw zvol.
