basic onspaces question,,,
Will Landstrom asked whether onspaces should reference the link name or the actual raw slice when adding chunks on IDS 9.4 using links to raw slices. Art Kagel and Paul Watson both answered that the link name or path should be used as the argument of the onspaces -p option. Will thanked them. Answered.

Hi everyone. I hope you don't mind me asking a basic onspaces question. I need
to add some chunk space to some 9.4 IDS databases. I am going to first create
some raw slices, and the create links to these raw slices. Here is my
question. When I then execute onspaces to create the chunks do I reference the
link name? That's what I would assume. Or do I need to perhaps reference the
actual unix raw slice name? I know...basic. Thank you all.

Failure is not as frightening as regret.
If you want to improve, be content to be thought foolish and stupid.
