[SunHELP] Veritas vs. DiskSuite

[Fletcher, Joe]

Doesn't apply to root disk so much but there are things you can do with
Veritas that Disksuite doesn't do. Take a look at the docs for Volume
manager and look at striped-pro and concat-pro volumes. If you are using
large volumes in high availability environments these kind of things are
quite useful.

I have heard that there are issues with mirroring the root partition. I
don't need a GUI, and I have already written tools for monitoring file
systems raid/mirrored with disk suite. Cost not being an issue, other then
take my word for it, why should I use veritas over disk suite?

IMHO there is no comparison.
If you have Veritas available I'd use it in a second.
Better structure, file system, GUI, management tools, everything!
Oh, much better support too!
It's only disadvantage (as far as I'm concerned) is the cost.

Can anyone give me a run down on a product comparison for veritas and
disksuite ? We have both available to use, but I don't know enough about
both to make a decision. Thanks in advance.
