David,

this is really interesting. I have some Informix instances on raw devices
(although on HP K370/3), and 7MB/sec sounds very good to me!

1) Did you choose ADSMPIPE with ONTAPE? ONBAR?
2) ADSMPIPE is unsupported, isn't it? But I'd like to try it!
3) Where can I get a hp-ux 10.20 version ... or sources?

Thank you

Mauro
