We will be acquiring an RX3600 server, running HPUX 11.31. We will most likely be getting 24GB of memory. I understand best practices are to have your device swap at least equal to the amount of physical memory. The disk layout will be as following: two internal disks (for the OS and OS mirror), and all other disks on our EVA4400. My question: where should the swap reside (should it be in vg00/lvol2, as in our 11.11 server), and hence, on the internal disks, or should it be on one of our EVA4400 disks? Thanks.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Unless you boot off the EVA, swap should be on local disk.
I would do it just the way you did it on your 11.11 server.
Sizing is another matter. With 24 GB of ram, you don't need 48 GB of swap. Start out with 12 GB and see where that gets you.

No problem with 72 GB internal disks.
If you have a choice between 15,000 rpm disks and 10,000 rpm disks choose faster.
