Abstract
This Redpaper was developed to provide readers with basic performance guidelines for Samba Version 3.0.5 on zSeries Linux and to give background information that can be used in configuring and tuning the Samba V3 environment.
The data collected was developed using an IBM internal workload generator to simulate a heavy transaction load. The paper identifies parameters for optimum performance of Samba V3.
