When the mode is set to ON, all of the zero data page
reclamation operations in processing are stopped. (Also
the zero data page reclamation cannot be started.)
* Zero data page reclamation by WriteSame and UNMAP
functions, and IO synchronous page reclamation are not
disabled.
Mode 930 = ON:
All of the zero data page reclamation operations in
processing are stopped at once. (Also the zero data
reclamation cannot be newly started.)
Mode 930 = OFF (default):
The zero data page reclamation is performed.
See sheet "SOM930" for relationship with SOM755 and
SOM859.
Note:
1. The mode is applied when stopping or disabling zero
data page reclamation by user request is required.
2. When the mode is set to ON, the zero data page
reclamation does not work at all.
• Zero data page reclamation by Write Same and
UNMAP, and IO synchronous page reclamation
can work.
3. When downgrading micro-program to a version that
does not support the mode while the mode is set to
ON, set the mode to OFF after the downgrade
• Because the zero data page reclamation does not
work at all while the mode is set to ON.
4. The mode is related to SOM755 and SOM859.
