Defining a chunk with unixware veritas.
Francisco Huezo asked about Veritas on UnixWare, including splitting a 10 GB disk into 2 GB partitions, page size, raw devices and KAIO. Thanh said UnixWare 7.1.1 has no 2 GB partition limit, the limit is Informix's chunk size (to be removed in IDS 9.3), page size is 2K, raw devices work and KAIO is not supported up to 9.20. Surfer! described Veritas as a disk manager. Thanh said UnixWare's equivalent is Online Data Manager.

Hi. List. I feel Rookie about veritas. What is veritas? By example, If I have a 10GB disk. may I divide the disk in 2-GB partitions o filesystem? How? What size is physical page? Is database able to use raw devices? Is database able to use KAIO? I don't have the release note, yet.

UW-7.1.1 does not have 2GB slice/partition limitation. It is Informix's the chunk size limitation ( to be removed in IDS-9.3). > What size is physical page? 2K > Is database able to use raw devices?

Vertitas is a disk manager e.g. is used for setting up slices & file systems. I don't know if it's available for Unixware - I've come across it in Solaris. But it might be available for your Unixware machine. > >By example, If I have a 10GB disk. may I divide the disk in 2-GB partitions o >filesystem?

A subset of it, including RAID0, is bundled in the core OS). For full ODM, a license is needed.
