Thank you.  We had been using multiple read-only UFS monts and one R/W mount as 
a "poor-man's" technique to move data between SAN-connected hosts.  Based on 
your discussion, this appears to be a Really Bad Idea[tm].

That said, is there a "HOWTO" anywhere on installing QFS on Solaris 9 (Sparc64) 
machines?  Is that even possible?
