Ryan,

        You can have separate mount points from your server's perspective, but once 
you get into the NetApp it's just a pool of disk drives that are allocated as 
necessary by their WAFL (Write Anywhere File Layout) system.  Therefore in reality you 
get zero benefit.

Could you clarify something for me? Are you saying that if I have a variety
of 'mounts' on our netapp

say

/mnt1
/mnt2

I would not benefit by putting my datafiles on seperate ones? I thought that
is where my I/O waits are coming from. Since we have all of our datafiles in
the same directory?
