Task 3: Plan and Execute Hard Drive Partitioning
By default, the Cisco EMF software is installed with standard UNIX file system (UFS) partitions
(partitions with readable directory structures). However, we recommend using RAW File System
(RAWFS) partitions (partitions without readable directory structures) for the database drives for larger
networks, because RAWFS partitions offer the following advantages over UFS partitions:

1. A small to medium-sized deployment applies to a network environment with no more than eight active/standby pairs of Cisco PGW 2200 Softswitches.
The recommendations for the small to medium size deployment are based on Sun Sparc-based platforms with a single hard drive, and RAM size ranging
from 2 GB to 8 GB.
2. A medium to large-sized deployment is supported by Sun Netra T5220 series or Sun Netra T5200 series platforms.
Task 4: Ensure That the Sun Solaris 10 Operating System Is Installed
Cisco MNM machines must have the Sun Solaris 10 operating system with CDE 1.3 installed. If the Sun
Solaris 8 or 10 operating system is not already installed, install it according to instructions provided by
the manufacturer.
Also install the latest J2SE Solaris 10 patch cluster, available at this URL:

The capability to span multiple hard disks
The option of having databases over 2 GB in size
gives you hard drive partitioning recommendations, and they are for NFS partitions. For the
