I/O APIs (File System, Device, etc.)
• Server caches SAN data in server attached flash• (SSD, PCI-Card, SAS attached drawer, etc.)
• Caching is transparent, no required application changes
• Potential benefits are performance (more transactions, reduced response time), and/or improved scale and efficiency of SAN infrastructure via SAN off-load
•Provides storage agnostic caching solution integrated into AIX•Supports virtualization features such as Live Partition Mobility

AIX Flash Cache Details
Boosts I/O performance for reads (higher throughput and lower latency)
AIX determines what is “hot data” and stores a copy in flash memory (cache)
Reads become very fast for “hot data”Writes continue to the SANCan offload congestion on connection to SAN improving write performance

LVMMirroring
• New LVM mirroring policy to direct all reads to a specific mirror
• Allows LVM mirror to be used as fast copy for improved read performance
• Off-loads primary storage resources• Potentially improving the overall performance

– Instead of an IB network infrastructure, can use high-speed Ethernet connection and run RDSv3 over Oracle RAC cluster for high performance

AIX 7.2 bos.net.tcp.client re-packaging
Goal: Reduce the need to patch unnecessary packages
– All the new split-out packages are installed by default. – User may remove the individual (split-out) packages if no other packages require them. – Once removed, those packages will not be installed/updated during future TL or SP updates. – If customers have installp packages dependent on any of the three filesets, they will need to update the pre-
req for AIX 7.2.

AIX 7.2 Code Removal and LPP Changes
No support for POWER6, POWER5, or POWER4
Additional Code Removals from AIX 7.2– NIS+– NDAF– IBM Virtual Shared Disk (rsct.vsd)– IBM Systems Director Components; pConsole– Selected old adapters – IP over FC driver– Fcparray head driver– graPhigs– Java 5– Bos.INed– Obsolete locales– Selected performance toolbox components & eclipse2.rte, including bos.perf.gtools and
performance workbench GUI
© 2016 IBM Corporation18
Removal of Trusted Computing Base
Remove “Trusted Computing Base”
Rationale:– Since AIX6.1, Trusted Execution (TE) is available and it's part of base AIX. – TE is a more powerful and enhanced mechanism that overlaps some of the TCB
functionality and provides advance security policies to better control the integrity of the system.
– Some key AIX features like WPAR is not supported with TCB
© 2016 IBM Corporation19
Additional changes and enhancements Other changes
– CIFS Client – move it to the AIX Expansion Pack and provide the CIFS client with "as-is" support only.
– JFS “Classic”: Remove as an install option; function would remain in AIX 7.2 and continue to be supported
– Include DSO features in base OS (bos.aso) – no separate LPP on AIX 7.2
LPPs not supported on AIX 7.2– Fast Connect– Performance Toolbox– PowerSC Trusted Surveyor not supported on AIX 7.2 as management server
OpenSSH is being added to the Bos Install menus
HTTPD support in NIM
© 2016 IBM Corporation20
NIM HTTP Option for Client ‘Pull’ Installation
Benefits of using http download access– Communication occurs over a single http port, easy firewall management– Secure transactions use digest authentication methods (TLS v1.0/1.1/1.2)– Actions are driven from the client's end (the install target), no host access required
How does it work?– The HTTP service is an embedded http service option in NIM.– The service is dynamic, binds to a well-known port, and exists only when resources are being remotely served.– IPv4 and IPv6 environments are supported
What is supported?– NIM scripting customization– Fileset install, bundle install
Limitations– No support for network boot– No support for NIM BOS installation– No support for Thin Server provisioning

CloudInit for AIX image activation at deployment● PowerVC V1.2.3 will support CloudInit for image activation on AIX
– Image activation is the process that automatically runs when a new VM image is deployed to customize the VM instance
• For example, to set the hostname, networking configuration, and SSH keys– PowerVC formerly only supported the proprietary VSAE activation engine
● CloudInit has become the defacto standard for activation – Open source project used by OpenStack, AWS and other clouds– CloudInit supports a much richer activation technology
• Supports passing in customer activation scripts• Built in modules for Chef, Puppet, and user creation, etc.
– Upstream cloud managers are highly dependent on CloudInit
● More information can be found at: http://cloudinit.readthedocs.org/en/latest/

PowerHA 7.2
● Saves you time and money by integrating IBM Power® Enterprise Pools and Elastic Capacity on Demand as part of a PowerHA failover operation.
● Enables automation that eliminates the need for an operator to conduct manual steps to perform a live partition mobility (LPM) move or AIX Live Update.
● Automatically replaces failed repository disk.
● Upgrade from PowerHA V7.1.3 and beyond without disruption
● Performs automatic verification checks for AIX and PowerHA across all the nodes in the cluster, thereby eliminating operator effort and error.
● Includes quarantine policies for handling cluster splits, eliminating the potential for data corruption. Disk fencing and HMC-based active node shoot-downs to isolate the sick node.
● Enables tie breaker to be set up using an NFS server.
● Includes a wizard to configure GLVM (low cost mirroring) in a PowerHA cluster.
● Enables manual control for mirror resync operations in EMC SRDF deployments.
AIX 6.1 technology level (TL) 09 and AIX 7.1 TL03 support PowerHA V7.2.
Some of the advanced features available in PowerHA V7.2 are available only with the 2015 AIX releases: AIX 7.1 TL04 and AIX 7.2.

Offering for – AIX and IBM i Power E880 customers – HA/DR deployments requiring fast failover via active
standby memory and processors
Offering Entitlements– One or two no charge processor nodes depending on
the primary server configuration – No charge active standby memory and processor cores
via Elastic Capacity on Demand (ECOD) = PowerHA licensed cores on the primary system (minus 8 for required the activations on the CBU)
Offering requirements overview– Primary and CBU must be same GHz of Power E880– Primary can be new or installed box, CBU must be a new
box– Primary system must have a minimum of 75% of the
processors activated and 50% of installed DIMM memory active
– One entitlement of AIX or IBM i & PowerHA non transferable
– Maximum of 8 processor activations on the CBU and minimum of 25% of DIMM memory active
– Minimum of 8 PowerHA entitlements on the primary system– No charge ECOD days must be activated upon install of
CBU system and remain active for 365 days – The ECOD processor days can only be used on the Power
E880 CBU system and must be renewed annually and customer is required to maintain minimum requirements
– Registration of primary system and CBU prior to CBU order fulfillment (registration validates minimum requirements)
– Primary and CBU must be within the same enterprise
Primary CBU
entitlement transferentitlement transfer
• All transferable entitlements must originate on the primary system and may not run concurrently on the primary system and the CBU system
• Subsequent to the initial workload deployment, production partitions may be moved to the CBU system for workload balancing etc
• The total number of processor entitlements running production across both servers can not exceed the original total licensed entitlements.

SPP size can be dynamically increased.User agrees on this change through a tunable
Customer pays for a 7 CPUs application license, as he has 6 CPUs on active frame, and 1 CPU on backup frame. Customer expects the SPP size to be adjusted on both nodes, active node and backup node, at takeover time (and then that the CoD CPUs are assigned to this LPAR)
