hello Gurus;
In Sun Info Doc 72063, it clearly says that Solaris 9 SVM metadbs are
8192 blocks in size while earlier version of SDS have metadb which are
1034 blocks in size.
I am guessing the incorrect terminology was used?
It should be 8192 sectors and 1034 sectors instead of 8192 blocks and
1034 blocks?
ufs blocks are default 8K in size. A 8192 block size would = 8k * 8192 =
64 Mbyte!!
The above cannot be because Sun formal recommendation for the metadb
slice is only 32 Mbytes! (256 Mbytes is now defunct)
But metadb reside on non ufs slices so I am guesing the block size refer
to sector sizes (512 bytes).
Thus one metadb would be 8192 * 512 bytes = 4k?
Warmest Regards
