We get LUNs from various storage devices for building our RACs. They guy who taught me how to set things up said to partition the LUNs so I've always done that with fdisk; however, recently someone else built a RAC and and said he did not partition the LUNs. So, Do I only need to partition if the storage is actual raw disks, but not when it is a LUN from a storage unit?
