Hi all,

Just wanted to sanity check my disk storage pool layout I'm planning.

AIX 4.3.3
Server H80
2 x D40 SSA drawers, two loops over two SSA 160 adapters
32 x 9Gb SSA disks
Max nodes backing up at any one time is approx 6

I don't want to mirror the volumes

32 x 9Gb logical volumes, each logical volume on one SSA disk. These lvs
will then translate into 32 disk storage pool volumes. This way if I have a
disk failure I only lose one disk pool volume.

Anyone got any ideas what kind of read/write performance I should expect to
see from this config?

Any other options considered.

Regards

Chris
