"Read uncommitted" and that *NONE I would think would both turn off the requirements for journaling.

Now, let me say that I think journaling is a good thing. We journal all of our files. It took me years of fighting and it wasn't until we got a H/A system which required it that it happened. If you do use journaling I strongly recommend getting

It will cost you a little but it's much cheaper, and much more effective, than throwing a truckload of money into alternative hardware.
I suppose you could customize all your vendor software to better handle commitment control (as was once suggested to me by someone on the list) but that's very costly, hampers upgrades, etc. Probably only acceptable to those shops which figure manpower is unlimited but paying 1 cent to a vendor is prohibited. Or maybe a consultant milking business.
