I am using a Sun E420R, Solaris 8 with a Diff SCSI 20 Slot CLARiioN with two SP, 16Mb cache,populated with 18Gb 7200 RPM drives. It seems to write slow to the disks on the CLARiiON by 2x for example:
I found three files:
786440192 system01.dbf
786440192 system02.dbf
524296192 system04.dbf
---------
2097176576 Total
I transferred them using a script using rcp over the gigabit ethernet from moes disk subsystem to the internal disk on larry.

I transferred the same files using rcp over the gigabit ethernet from larry's internal disk to moes CLARiiON disk subsystem.

Not a surprise. It takes a lot longer to write to the old 7200 rpm disks on the old CLARiON.
However, even at 7:32 for 2GB, 9GB should have only taken 35-40 minutes, certainly under an hour, not 4 hours.
Any ideas?
