Re: SAN Attached to iSeries - Anyone?

But once you've defined a bunch of 'small' drives, won't OS/400 
simply dump them into the (designated) ASP, and make them available 
as part of the Single Level Store?

IIRC, there was talk about the 'problem' of dealing with OS/400 and 
SANs-- OS/400 takes all the space available to it and adds it to the 
S.L.S., which is not the way PCs work-- PCs grab space as needed.
