Informix using UFS vs vXFS on Solaris or Linux?

Hi, Last time I had problem with corrupted file system on Solaris/Veritas using UFS, there is some suggestion to change from UFS to vXFS I guess it is easier to administrate the cluster. I did some search and found a lot written about using vXFS for databases or other application which have a lot of write/read, but it is a bit old information. I wonder if anybody have any experience using Informix on vXFS on Solaris ? Soon I will migrate to Linux does vXFS works better on Linux or do I need to choose something else ? Thanks in advance Layth ------------------------------ Layth Yousif ------------------------------

Hi, Solaris+Veritas+Informix+volume mirroring best is using raw device (30 years without problems) and not cooked files (UFS or vxfs) Regards ------------------------------ Garcia Benjamin ------------------------------

Hi Gracia, I agree, I have other environments that use it and it works without any problems, but in this environment they wanted cooked files, therefore I have to choose FS which may be best for Informix. Regards //Layth ------------------------------ Layth Yousif ------------------------------
