How did you lose it? Did you lose 2 disks at the same time? Was it an Informix problem? Was it a hardware problem? What happened? -----Original Message----- From: Obnoxio The Clown [mailto:obnoxio@hotmail.com] Sent: Monday, February 07, 2000 12:12 PM To: jvohden@co.fairbanks.ak.us; informix-list@iiug.org Subject: Re: HP Raid configuration From: Jane Vohden <jvohden@co.fairbanks.ak.us> > >We are moving to a RAID 5 configuration on an L2000 HP box running HP-UX >11. >I am interested to know if there are any known problems with IDS 7.xx >running in this environment.

Forget the performance issue, the chance of losing data without warning makes it a non-starter for me. ______________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free Email at http://www.hotmail.com
