In my mind TSM make "load balancing" when it have different volumes. I'm pretty sure of that with disk storage pool. I don't know for DB Volume. So, for me you should create on volume by physical disk to avoid disk contention.

[mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Friday, April 12, 2002 7:08 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: DB Volumes Question: Lets say I have 4 36gb disks. Is it better to create one db volume sized at 33gb on 2 disks, and mirror it on the others, or should you create 2 16.5gb db volumes on each 36gb disk and mirror those on the other 2 disks?
