Hi, Has anyone noticed dbverify too slow on a GPFS filesystem in a RAC environment. I did a test on 4 GB database file (AIX 5.3, Oracle 10.2.0.3, gpfs 2.3 ) which took about 15 minutes. On a similar non-RAC AIX server, the file took less than a minute. Any idea why it is taking so long on GPFS. Thanks Manmohan
