What is the use of Multidisk functionality in system configuration console?.
After copying the data from one disk to another disk the new data will be saved in old disk. Then how it can improve the performance of the system?
Voted best answer
When a single disk is used to store the data of all the services, it reduces the system
performance significantly. The System Directory Configuration task allows the user
to specify separate disks for storing the data to optimize the system performance.
The configuration for this task is a two step procedure:
1. Each service that needs to store the data must be configured to use the
Server Data or Server Data 2 path.
2. The Server Data or Server Data 2 paths are then configured on each node
running the respective service, to point to one of the existing disks on the node.

Using the Multidisk functionality, you can provide exclusive disk access to the system services that are I/O intensive like Aspect Directory and History services. This improves overall IO and disk accessing which improves the system perfromance.
