- Where is the tablespace of the table? Shared disk with temp or index
tablespace?

Its on a different mountpoint (and disk) from the index or the temp
tablespaces

   - Check your SORT_AREA_SIZE on both systems.

Its 1 Mb. I have done the tests with as much as 250M but same results

   - Do some basic disk I/O tests. On both the Compaq and Solaris, move a
large file from one drive to another, just to see what time it takes. If
the
Solaris system is significantly slower, discuss this with your system
administrators.

If I do a simple cp, I am not able to see any big performance difference


Thanks a lot...

Babu

Babu - I would recommend checking:
   - Where is the tablespace of the table? Shared disk with temp or index
tablespace?
   - Check your SORT_AREA_SIZE on both systems.
   - Do some basic disk I/O tests. On both the Compaq and Solaris, move a
large file from one drive to another, just to see what time it takes. If
the
Solaris system is significantly slower, discuss this with your system
administrators.

All

We are attempting to move some applications off Compaq T64 into Sun Solaris
8 and running into performance issues.

I am trying to rebuild an index which is taking more than 3 1/2 hours while
it used to take < 20 min on T64.

I find most of the waits on DIRECT PATH READS and DIRECT PATH WRITES. The
index tablespace and the temporary tablespace are on separate mountpoints
which reside on separate disks.

I am doing a "truss" on the session and see that its doing the following

kaio(AIOWAIT, 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF)               Err#22 EINVAL

I think it is trying to do a KAIO call and failing. Then it attempts a
synchronous PWRITE call.

But our SAs are not able to help us to confirm this. Have any of you seen
this issue?

Any inputs would be greatly appreciated. I'll gladly provide you with addl
info if you need.


Thanks in advance

Babu
