Currently running tsm 4.2.1 on solaris 8.  Have approx 6gb database split into two 
volumes, each mirrored.
Using standard filesystem based volumes.  a few questions.

1.  Is the performance increase worth the time and hastle to convert to raw volumes?

2.  Can I mix and match?  i.e. create a temp volume, delete dbvol1, create a raw 
volume in its place, then delete the ttemp volume to move the data back?

3.  Just how do you specify the raw partition?  Tried it before /dev/rdsk/c2t3d0 for 
example, but no joy.

Thanks for any information you have.
