Well, that's handy but things are still a bit murky.
Does that mean I would just have my Unix & Netapp guys make sure I have a
big volume of space and then I just create any zero padded file as needed
in that disk space?
It seems so but I wanted to verify.
So, lets say I had a filesystem with 1 TB of space. Once I have that, I could create as many zero padded files as I wanted (in the size that I want) and then, once they are created, add them to the ASM diskgroup?
Regards,
Chris
