Uses

This query shows the importance of maximizing the number of DASD buffer hits for VTV mount requests. When the requested volume is in the DASD buffer, access for the requesting workload is quick. But when the requested volume is not in the buffer, it must be recalled from physical tape—resulting in long delays. Execute the STKRMD – STK VSM Daily Recall Mount Time Distribution for a deeper look at the mount time distributions specifically for VTV requests requiring recall.
