Rajan, In a SAN configuration, the lun/volume should appear just like a locally attached physical disk on your server. MySQL will not need any special configurations to access it, just poiint the datadir to the SAN disk. Regards, Scott Tanner On Mon, 2007-10-08 at 11:06 +0530, Ace wrote

I think you'll need to do a lot of testing to yourself to find the right answer to that. The number of disks, type of disks, and raid configuration will have the most effect on performance. Personally, we had roughly 15% increase in performance from ditching our EMC clarion and going with exte

Sounds like your not using threaded libraries. Was mysql built differently, or are you using a different RPM on this server? Scott On Tue, 2007-05-29 at 22:49 +0200, Quentin Gouedard wrote: > No, I have just collectd+mrtg, but i don't even use them to monitor mysql. > I launch mysql via /etc/i
