RE: _tru64_directio_disabled param Value on Digital Tru64 Unix

Vivek - I don't know if you checked Google, but the following page has some information. http://www.ixora.com.au/notes/direct_io.htm It sounds like on Tru64 5.0 this is "yes" by default, so you would only be setting it "no".

        And sure I always try out new settings on the production server. That is how you get a reputation as an eXtremeDBA. Corporations like to trust their systems to "live on the edge" types. ;-) Dennis Williams

Anjo , List

If you mean it is SAFE to set this parameter to Either Value , Thanks

Are there any Guidelines to Set this Value for Best Performance ? OR Should we Simply Set it & See ?
The only Concern is that it is a Production Database .

Thanks
