The F2 filesystem was striped across the loop of the second node. <> Each filesystem was composed of 2 RAID-DP groups; each RAID-DP group was composed of 8 data disks and 2 parity disks. <> One spare disk was present on each node. <> All network ports were set to use jumbo frames (MTU=9000). <> Server tunings: <> - date 0801 -- set clock to 8:01am for reproducibility <> - options no_atime_on 1 -- to disable access time update <> <> NetApp is a registered trademark and "Data ONTAP", "Network Appliance", and WAFL are trademarks of Network Appliance, Inc. in the United States and other countries. <> All other trademarks belong to their respective owners and should be treated as such. =============================================================================== Generated on Tue Jun 8 17:31:41 EDT 2004 by SPEC SFS97 ASCII Formatter Copyright (c) 1997-2004 Standard Performance Evaluation Corporation
