We are moving to a new EMC frame. But they tech arch team would like to move from 12 fast wide channels down to 5. My question is what are the MPE i/o block sizes on transfer. Currently I have a 997/600 with 3 HSC bus cards which have 3 or 4 fast wides on each and one on the system card 0/28/52. Each channel has 4-4.3 gig drives down each chain. Also currently averaging 500 i/o per second. any comments are appreciated. Moving to a emc 8730 and sharing it with inefficent unix servers ********** Posted from www.3kworld.com * To join/leave the list, search archives, change list settings, * * etc., please visit http://raven.utc.edu/archives/hp3000-l.html *
