Should DAOS be encrypted (and why wouldn't you?) then you CAN NO LONGER JUST COPY NSF FILES TO OTHER SERVERS. The fact that this is not supported nor recommended by IBM notwithstanding, there are other benefits to replicating the NSF files to a new server over an OS level copy.]]>

As i understood DAOS folder can not be moved phyisically to any other server / location.

This worries to consider the DR scenario's or hardware migrations.

Need to get some answers clarified around this yet from IBM.]]>

TX logging for this client was enabled for DAOS and is circular. Should the HD fail, we'll simply replace it and have Domino rebuild the TX logs. It is a price vs MTBF decision for this install. Price won ;)

If it was archived TX logs then that would be a totally different decision.]]>

If I unterstand this correctly you/your customer moved the TX logs to a single SATA drive.

Is this HD also connected to the PERC controller?

How critical is it, if this single HD fails?]]>

@2, For the i5, it is indeed confusing. Most of the "official" documentation points to the i5 not needing a seperate ASP for the logs as it "just works". For DAOS on the i5 though, the recommendation is for the minimum DAOS attachment size to be 1MB.]]>

Interesting findings. We finally moved our T-logs from SAN to internal RAID-1 disk on a dedicated controller - at the same time we moved from Domino 7.0.3 to 8.5. I don't have the before/after stats to back it up like you do, but I can say that the server is significantly faster. As a simple example, running a re-build of clubusy.nsf for our 3000 mail users used to take 6 hours. It now takes under one hour. We are now taking steps to upgrade the ODS to the latest, where I hear I/O is even faster.

Do you have any comment on the notes.ini parm that drives the translog block size: CREATE_R85_LOG ??]]>
