Hello All,

Conventional wisdom is that for TSM on Solaris, raw volumes are the way
to go.  I have 4 Sun X4540 servers each with 64GB of memory and 48x1TB
internal SATA disks.  The whole disk farm is one big ZFS zpool.  TSM DB
and Log are on external fast SAN disk.

So far I've been using sequential file pools, but feel the need for some
disk pools for windows directories and MSSQL Metadata.  Is ZFS still as
inefficient as UFS was for this purpose?

Regards

Steve.
