WARNING: Do not create Sybase master devices as regular UNIX files
on ‘Production’ SQL Servers. I/O to operating system files is
buffered I/O, so your data may not be recoverable in the case of a
system crash or other failure.
Avoid remote mounted file systems. Do not create or use devices on
remote NFS-mounted or RFS mounted directories.
You also need to determine if there is enough space in the file
system for master device.
NOTE: Consult your Lucent manual for recommended space
requirements.
