SUT Notes
1 (36 GB 10K RPM) disk with vxfs used for HP-UX
1 (36 GB 15K RPM) disk with hfs used for the file_set
1 (36 GB 15K RPM) disk with hfs with largefiles, behind used for logs
largefiles is an option used when making the hfs file system. When this
option is used, the maximum size for the files created on the file system is
not limited to the 2 GB limit.
behind is an option used when mounting the hfs file system. This enables
asynchronous writes to disk.
Bound each Zeus instance to the processor corresponding to its NIC
