Dear filebench gang,

fileset.c shows some evidence of a way to use filebench against individual raw 
device files instead of the 00000001/00000001 directory structure implied by 
fileset names.  I've been staring at it an hour or more, and I can't figure out 
how to make it work.

I've actually been trying to hack together a raw test by pre-creating a 
directory tree where the last 00000001 file is actually a symlink to 
/dev/vx/rdsk/demetridg/volume00.

Unfortunately, I can only kinda make it work using multiple 'define file' 
statements and hand-create each of the threads where each refers to one of the 
files.  Plus, something makes me pre-allocate it, which is really, really slow 
for lots of 32GB devices.

Any hints?

...Demetri
