Hi Everyone i'm trying to determine what my os block size is My DB's have an 8k block size and i thought for best performance my os block size should be the same.

So i run the command "df -g"

           8192 file system block size 1024 fragment size is the result

and i run the command "fstyp -v /dev/dbvg/dblv" f_bsize: 1024
f_frsize: 1024
is the result

so what is my os block size, aren't these commands returning my filesystem block size, or is that the same thing.
If i'm completly wrong how do i find out my OS block and should my filesystem block be the same as that?
i'm on HPUX 10.20

Thanks David Hill
