Active_IO=max-writes Specifies the maximum number of write operations to the .oaij file device that the RMU Optimize After_Journal command will attempt simultaneously. This is not the maximum number of write operations in progress; that value is the product of active system I/O operations and the number of devices being written to simultaneously. The value of the Active_IO qualifier can range from 1 to 5. The default value is 3. Values larger than 3 might improve performance with some tape drives.
