According to the current "paging space tips" at
http://techsupport.services.ibm.com/server/aix.techTips the only size issue
was:
"Make each paging space logical volume roughly equal in size. If paging
spaces are of different sizes, and the smaller ones become full, paging
activity will no longer be spread across all of the physical volumes."

Subject: [aix-l] Paging space question
I am assisting a DBA with troubleshooting a system (SP node, AIX 4.3.3 ML
10). I wish to make a statement to management, but I want to confirm it
first...
Can anyone confirm the following statement for me (and provide resources) ?
"If you have a system with more than one paging space, and they happen to
be different sizes, the system will not use any of the larger paging
space(es) beyond the size of the smaller"
For example
System A has 3 paging spaces configured as follows:
1024MB
512MB
2048MB
AIX will not use more than 512MB of ANY of the paging spaces.
Is this true ? I recall that it is (or was at one time).
Thanks!
