Ok -- darn it. "a 1 to END minidisk" just doesn't have the same ring to it as 'full pack'. And it's another syllable to mumble.. ;-)
For Linux guests - my typical recommendation is to use '1 to END minidisks' rather than get into dividing things any smaller - unless there is a really compelling reason. And I typically refer to this as a 'full pack' provisioning implementation -- so I think I need to stop doing that. Thanks all -- wanted to make sure I wasn't in the dark on how to refer to these beasties.
