disk pool size,and total number.

2002-02-14 Thread Muthyam Reddy

Hi SMers

Can anybody write based what we have to decide 
i)diskpool size
ii)number of disk pools.

We need to take 500Gb data backup(full) every day and we are using Informix onbar.what 
size of diskpools  makes better performance for 500Gb data.
We are using max 4 onbar sessions at a time.
 we have 8 tape tapedrives in library.

thanks

I would be tempted to send the Onbar data directly to tape, especially since
you have plenty of drives.  If you send the data to disk first, you will
only be able to run one stream to tape during migration.
