Folks:



A bit off topic for this forum but I don't think there is an AIX forum in
Midrange.com. We can take responses off line unless folks are interested.



I'm setting up a new AIX environment at Agile (P8 with SAN storage). It
will ultimately take over for an older Microsoft AD server, primarily
focused on file serving (SAMBA or AIX Connections) and act as a NIM server.
IBM i will provide DNS/LDAP/DHCP. As much as anything this will be a proof
of concept to kill AD in select customers.



Before I get the "Why not just use IBM i all the way", quite simply the IFS
is too slow in most cases both in file serving and backup/restore. Not a
slam on it, just a fact.



So I'm looking for suggestions on DASD structure or any other best practice
tips those of you who already run AIX might have.



I'll be trolling for AIX specific sites as well but I thought I'd start
here.
