There are some unpublished bugs relating to asynch I/O on ocfs and = non-contigous files. It is not recommended to use asynch with ocfs on AS = 2.1 or AS 3.0 until it is fixed in the near future with a new ocfs = version. Using it can cause corruptions. There are always some bugs depending on what you are doing with your = current hardware/OS/Database/Software/Human interactions.

Are you running 9025 or 9206 on Linux RHAS 3.0 with disk_asynch_io = enabled?
Are you running RAC?

If so, I want to please hear from you...my managment wants to get an = idea on number of sites running on our platform with AIO.

Management is leary of the it can cause corruption and it has issues = statem,entas that have been tosssed around in our community that I feel = are more accurate for older versions of Linux and Oracle.

My understanding is that 9205/9206 oin RHAS 3.0 is stable and no = significant/known bugs.

I am verifying the bug aspect and will test, but at this time I'm just = trying to get approval to test with AIO.

Thanks
