This is a question i had for a long time.. with out a solution... how will
shred work on a disk subsystem? Does any body have experience with this .. i
mean on a disk array like Clarion or HP MSA .. these arrays usually do
not repeat the command in its intended purpose.. how do we successfully
use "shred"
on them??

Raj,
shred is not guaranteed to work on all filesystems. In fact, it will not
work on journaled file systems like ext3fs, reiserfs or on RAID arrays
etc. It would work on simpler filesystems.
It is usually used to shred a entire partition rather than one file.
