Recommended worker1Threads on primary cluster
IBM® recommends that you increase the worker1Threads to twice the number of AFM DR filesets that are using GPFS backend, which exist on all file systems in the cache cluster.
For example, if a cluster has 50 primary fileset that is using NFS protocol and 60 primary using GPFS protocol, the worker1Threads must be at least 160 (50 + 2*60). For NFS protocol, the number of worker1Threads can be equal to the number of primary filesets.
