Vivek - I don't know if you checked Google, but the following page has some information. http://www.ixora.com.au/notes/direct_io.htm It sounds like on Tru64 5.0 this is "yes" by default, so you would only be setting it "no". And sure I always try out new settings on the production server. That is how you get a reputation as an eXtremeDBA. Corporations like to trust their systems to "live on the edge" types. ;-) Dennis Williams DBA Lifetouch, Inc. [EMAIL PROTECTED]
