For example, LUNs 0 to 3 are locked in cache and all 50% of the total cache has been filled by data from
LUN 0, 1, and 2.
When a host issues a read command for data from LUN 3, the following will occur:
The controller unit determines which data to remove from the locked portion of cache, using the
LRU algorithm. The LRU algorithm is thus: If LUN 0 has not been accessed for 1 hour, LUN 1
has not been accessed for 30 minutes, and LUN 2 has not been accessed for 2 minutes, then
LUN 0’s data will be removed from cache because it is the least recently used data.
The controller reads data from disks, locks data in cache, sends data to host.
Any reads of same data will be serviced from cache (until data is removed from cache due to its
being the least recently used data).
3.3.3.1 Locking / Unlocking a LUN
To lock a LUN in the data cache, enter:
LUN LOCK=X
<Enter>
where “X” is the Logical Unit number <0..1023> (Figure 3–32
).
Figure 3–32 Logical Unit Status - LUN Locked in Cache
LUN UNLOCK=x unlocks a LUN and releases its cache locked by the LUN.
3.3.3.2 System Performance Statistics
The controller monitors pre-fetch and cache efficiency, request distribution, transaction, and transfer
rates by port.
The STATS command displays the Performance Statistics for the host ports, disk channels, and cache
memory (Figure 3–33
). It will show the read and write performance of each of the host ports.
