I run several sybase version 12.5 databases on sun 480s and 490's on
solaris 8 and solaris 9.
I am connected to a 2gb fiber SAN with 4gb cache in front of the SAN.
We currently run sybase on raw volumes.
I am trying to convince my coworkers to switch the sybase to run on vxfs
files instead of raw.
Can anyone give me pros and cons to switching to files from raw?
I think the files on vxfs is almost as fast and give much easier
administration.
my coworkers are concered about performance loss with files, but i have a
ton of sar data showing we barely push the disks at all now.
thanks gurus!
