I´m installing a sybase database for the first time.

I have to use raw partitions, but i have no experience with them. I created
the filesystems and them, edit the /etc/sysconfig/rawdevices
ex;
/dev/raw/raw1 /dev/cciss/c0d0p2
when i type the command : raw -qa, i get this output:
/dev/raw/raw1: bound to major 104, minor 2

Is this working?

i have no idea....

best regards

That looks about right. Have you tried accessing the raw device from
Sybase (i.e. running disk init against that device?)

Hi,
Also have a look at:

Additionally I'd probably do a services rawdevices restart after
making anychanges to the rawdevices file

Kind Regards
