Precisely my point... In the end, you're still using the same set of disks
and the same controller... The only benefit of multiple logicals is each
LUN will have it own queue. But even then, you can increase the performance
of the controller that hosts one logical drive by increasing the queue
length.
In the end, it really doesn't make sense to create multiple logicals. And I
blame Dell because they used to ship their servers with 2 logical drives
setup. That and when they shipped the servers, the first logical would be 4
gigs which was too small for what we were doing at the time.

Boy do I just hate it when people say to create multiple logical
volumes when you have RAID1, or even RAID5 with three disks. Oh,
this is possible, if you have the Adaptec chipset (PERC3dc).
Creating multiple logical volumes on the same controller does not
gain any performance improvements.

How is that possible? It's the same two disks (Raid 1)

Per my solution provider, they performed testing and for
"performance reasons" recommend logical drives defined for OS, Data
and page file rather than one logical drive with multiple partitions.

Why multiple logical drives? It doesn't buy anything other
than to
make the ghost process more complex. 1 logical drive should suffice.

Yes I have imaged multiple logical drives with Ghost 7.5 and
8 onto
a RAID array.

One more question, has anyone successfully imaged
servers
configured with Raids?

We use ghost to create a generic image for
our Terminal Servers.
We have a group of generic images( for each hardware type) and then
use IM to install any new apps or hotfixes since the image creation.

Hello,
Just a poll. How many folks use
ghost to image their Citrix
boxes? If you have farms, do you use one image for all your boxes or
image individual servers? Thanks!
