Hi.
Using Sunfire V250, 3310 array (1 controller), Solaris 8, VxVM 4 for the Raw device space in the array, Informix 7.3.1 (64-bit).

My question:
Anyone have advantages or disadvanages of using the SAME (Stripe All Mirror Everything) using a config above. We have an App. that hits the Indexes heavy, creates dynamic tables. We've been dedicating Spindles to the heavy hitters, but I've used SAME w/DB2 and Oracle and it works fine. Just wondering of any issues w/Informix liking or disliking it. And is there a benefit, and if anyone has had a positive experience, what stripe size?

Thanx
