It was a long time since I worked with thesee things.

However, for software-raid (1 or 0) with D1000, I think DiskSuite would be
apropiate. It is, if I recall correctly, pretty easy to setup with
commandline utilities.

I think it is also enclosed in Solaris 8.

Of the Following Supported Software Which would be the Best Choice for SOFTWARE RAID 
0+1 ?

VERITAS Volume Manager software, versions 2.4, 2.5, 2.5.x, and 2.6 
Solstice DiskSuite[tm] software version 4.1

Vivek,

Depending upon the usage of database I may take decision. Also what software
are ou going to use for the raid. Veritas is good in stripping data upto a
good granualarity.

For a one application database I would think of optio n 1 or 2 with software
like veritas with a strioung of 128K in OLTP.
But for data warehous I would have RAID 1 (mirror ) and 6 volumes to strip
my data manually.

Given SUN D1000 Storage Box Containing 12 Disks , For Database Layout what
would be the most optimal Setup ?
1) 1 Volume Software RAID 1+0 Containing 6+6 Disks ?
2) 2 Volumes - Each Volume consisting of Software RAID 1+0 Containing 3+3
Disks 
3) 3 Volumes - Each Volume consisting of Software RAID 1+0 Containing 2+2
Disks 
4) Any Other Combination 

NOTE D1000 Storage Box :-
1) Does NOT have a Hardware RAID Controller 
2) Contains HIGH PERFORMANCE JBOD ARRAY
Feature: High Performance JBOD Array (D1000). 
Function: The D1000 has 2 UltraSCSI channels, with 4 UltraSCSI connections.
The Netra st D1000 can be configured with dual 40-MB/second UltraSCSI
Channels. 
Benefit: The servers may access the disk drives as individual storage
components or may use software RAID solutions to aggregate the disk drives
into bigger logical disk volumes.
