Check if these two policy settings are what you really want. AFAICT
they can make a huge difference, depending on the workload.
Here's what gives best performance. Of course these are also the most
risky settings, so use with care:
Current Cache Policy: WriteBack, ReadAdaptive, Cached, Write Cache OK if Bad BBU
Disk Cache Policy: Enabled
To select these settings for all lds on adapter 0, use
CLI=MegaCli; lsi_adapter_number=0
$CLI -ldsetprop CachedBadBBU -LALL -a$lsi_adapter_number &&
$CLI -ldsetprop -Cached -LAll -a$lsi_adapter_number &&
$CLI -ldsetprop -EnDskCache -LAll -a$lsi_adapter_number &&
$CLI -ldsetprop WB -LALL -a$lsi_adapter_number
Best
Andre
