Michael,
When you create a volume in HP-UX it automatically strips off 10% of
the disk space, so if you mount up 200GB you get 180GB of usable space. On top
of that running beyond 95% of usable is not recommended though it will work.
These restrictions have been around for quite a long time and I abide by them.
I've seen data files get corrupted when you push a filesystem up to and/or
beyond 100% of usable.

Subject: OmniBack and HP-UX
This was a new one for me.
I'm having a database restored using the "latest" and greatest, with SAN, and
Omniback, and putting it on a different server.
Some of my disks were "full", some pretty close which has never been a problem
before, but usually I work on Solaris.
HP-UX choked on several of the volumes and the "early" reports are saying that
either OmniBack or the HP-UX does not want or will not write a full volume back
on "restore". This could be quite serious.
They are recommending 10%, but some of the volumes are 200+GB and I can't
imagine having to hold back 20gb so I can restore some time down the road.
Anyone else get caught with this?
