Minidisks can be moved any way you like: they must remain of the same size. Note however that SFS takes into account on which physical volume its minidisks are located, and it will only launch 1 IO per physical volume. So, spreading over multiple volumes can improve IO concurrency. 2007/11/19, Sc

If I take a file pool server down and move some of its SG2 disks to other locations, both volume serial and location on the disk, will it cause problems? We have a small file pool that has some minidisks on physical disks that are going away. Regards, Richard Schuh
