On a cluster of 12 8650's, with approximately 5000 users, would there
be a performance enhancement creating, multiple mail areas with users
spread evenly across and multiple shared directories across several
disks, over, a single mail area with multiple shared directories across
several disks.
Thanks...

| 1970.1 | How long is a piece of string? :-) | IOSG::PYE | Graham - ALL-IN-1 Sorcerer's Apprentice | Wed Dec 16 1992 09:53 | 15 |
| It depends!
How big is the SDAF at the moment? If it's getting near to half the
disc size so that it's causing you difficulties convert/FDL'ing it then
it might be worth more than one DAF.
How busy is the disc the SDAF it's on? If the disc is having a problem
with I/O then it would be worth more than one DAF.
There's no simple answer!
There are other notes in here about multiple DAFs, also pointers to
tuning guides which you might weant to look for.
