    #lscfg -vl hdisk2
    hdisk2 U787B.001.DNWCC54-P1-T14-L5-L0 16 Bit LVD SCSI Disk Drive (73400 MB)
    Manufacturer................IBM H0
    Machine Type and Model......ST373454LC
    EC Level....................H13979
    Part Number.................26K5571
    Brand.......................H0
    1. lsattr -El hdisk2 -a queue_depth
    queue_depth 3 Queue DEPTH False
    I want to increase the value becuase some of the IBM tech papers suugested and imporved the oracle (my is 10gR2) performance.

    The "False" means it cannot be changed, if it said "True" then you could change it with chdev, or similar..
    As it says false, your OS / ML / TL is not able to change it.
    If you run: lsattr -HEl hdisk2 blah, you will see the header for this column is user_settable. So in your case user_settable is False, so you cannot set it.
