Does anyone out there still do this (if you ever have)?

Take a backup of the file systems (in our case, AIX UNIX), format the disks
clean, then restore the data back down to lay it back contiguous.

Are there any (noticeable) I/O advantages to doing this for a UniVerse
database on today's servers?  Provided our files are properly sized, of
course.

Our Systems guys are itching to do this.

Thanks,
