Re: Mixing I/O load type in an aggregate

I would intentionally mix assuming I can still meet io rrequirements, this generally will help balance since they have seperate io signatures...sequential reads versus small block mixed io etc. Fred Grieco <fredgrieco(a)yahoo.com> wrote: What is the best practice for mixing (or not mixing) different I/O load types in an aggregate? Should I keep similar loads together, or "mix and match" the sets. For instance, I am looking at placing a variety of different data sets on four aggregates. These data sets include sequential backups-to-disk, nfs and cifs file shares, and "QA-dev" luns. Should I keep all the backups on one aggregate, and all the file shares on another? What do you generally do? Are there situations that will adversely affect performance? TIA, Fred Please be advised that this email may contain confidential information.
