Disk Management

Managing disk space is very often a source of pain for many IT managers. Particularly when they are unable to get adequate space requirements from application or development folks. There just never seems to be enough disk space to go around. And sometimes, when there is enough to go around, the disk isn't fast enough!

Chackett Consulting has experience with the new Sun 3900 and 6900 devices (the old T3, but much better!!), the EMC Symmetrix and FC-4700, as well as several other, JBOD devices (Just a Bunch Of Disks) such as the D1000 or A1000 from Sun.

We can help you get the most out of your disk sub-system using raw devices, Veritas VxFS and VxVM, or DiskSuite. We also have unique experience in architecting filesystems on SAN environments for high transaction Oracle database systems, architecting for optimum performance built on the OFA architecture defined by Oracle.
