You say you have the first 1 GIG go to V-DISK. What are you using for

In my case I was just rushing to get the id ready for the customer to do
the oracle install. I haven't looked at how much memory they are really
using. For the POC the database is 90gig, but it could be much larger
later on.
They were talking about wanting to use EMC Clariion dasd to keep the
cost down.

I would question if you need all 4 swaps in v-disk.
I know that as soon as you see swapping in one of them you will increase
memory but wouldn't it make more sense to have 3 swaps on the real
stuff?

I am not sure what part is not clear. The 1 GByte SWAP is defined
via zVM to be v-Disk. The other 5 GB (by the way, I am rounding) are
assigned to EMC/SYM. I would not put my swap on Clariion, we use
Clariion only for DEV.
