I understand that there is no support for the 18GB disks under the KZPAC
controller and that Compaq will not support this configuration.
That being said, if I group (3) 18GB disks and create (2) RAID 5 StorageSets
(18GB and 16GB Approx.) from them, do you know of any problems (Such as data
loss, redundancy issues, etc...) that I could encounter. I was under the
impression that 18GB disks couldn't be configured in this manner, but I have
it configured in the Lab now under Tru64 UNIX. I've labeled the disks,
formatted for UFS and am currently copying data back and forth between the
Luns.
Any input on any possible errors or issues would be appreciated.

"People asked me why we chose Compaq.
The answer is simple. We took a benchmark
and gave it to all the vendors. Only two
vendors could run it. One ran it in 87 hours.
Compaq ran it in seven hours."
