and
Table 2-4 on page 2-8

Use
Table 2-1
if you are installing a single-system NMS that has two drives.
Note –
Do not partition the disk(s) to be used for Sybase at this time. That procedure
is covered in
Chapter 3, “Sybase Prerequisite Tasks.”
Note –
The second drive uses raw devices for the Sybase database. The installation
requires you to partition the second drive later in
Chapter 3, “Sybase Prerequisite
Tasks.”
Note –
The recommended partition settings are only a guideline. The examples in the
table assume a 9-GB drive. If you are installing the operating system on a different
size drive, consult your UNIX System Administrator or call the Technical Assistance
Center. See
“Technical Support”
