  • 1.  NVMe for IDAA on z16 single frame and DS8000

    Posted 06/21/26 01:57 AM

    Hello,

    Is it possible to use NVMe on DS8000 for IDAA Single Frame (A02).
    If yes, what are the requirements for implementing this?
    Thank you,

    Arye Shemer.

    I believe it cannot be used effectively without NVMe on IBM Z.

    You should use direct-attached NVMe SSDs instead of FCP-attached devices to achieve the best performance.

    Please refer to the IBM LinuxONE NVMe white paper (https://www.ibm.com/downloads/cas/QK53QV0E).
