Does the "Endian" value of the OS mater if the database storage is actually on an external Netapp or Hitachi file system ? I have been meaning to ask this question out here for a couple weeks now.

Linux on z/architecture is Big Endian according to Wiki, Solaris on Sparc is Big Endian but little Endian on x86.
(So I assume ZLinux is z/architecture, so the OP would need to verify)

For TTS, doesnt the endianness of the platforms come into account? Linux is Little endian and Solaris is big endian. I thought they would not be compatible for TTS.
