May I write directly onto a disk in the array ?

[Martmiwp]

Hi!

I want to copy in one session lots of data into the array - and the cache will not be able to handle it. So the tought is to write it directly onto the targeted disk (with MC ...). Or even further: would it be allowed to create a share that is writing directly to a disk ?

 

... I know: This makes the cache and other mechanims obsolete - but it would be quick and easy.

 

So my question: Is this supported and will the parity be maintained while I fill up one disk

 

Thanks

Michael

Yes, but it would be better just to not use the cache drive for the share while you're doing your copy
