Hi everybody,

I am just learning DB2. I heard to word RAID!!! What is it used for? What is the advantage of it? Or what more can you tell me that can be useful?

Thanks.

RAID is type of disk organization that is not directly related to DB2. There is software RAID and hardware RAID (the most common implementation). You can do a google search.

Hi Marcus,

what is it used for? What is its advantage? Is it something to do with general database? The hardware Raid is the one that I mention, RAID1.

Thanks.
