Default Re: Confused on EVMS setup

don't have to worry about EVMS at all. You just partition your boot disk
normally without EVMS (possibly just choosing the OES2 defaults), and for
your data disk, you use nsscon to partition your disk and create nss pools
and volumes. nsscon will completely take care of everything and you don't
even need to be aware yourself that EVMS is being used. You just use
nsscon exactly as if you were using it under NetWare.
The only case were things are getting complicated and where you need to be
aware of EVMS is when you try to create an NSS partition on the boot disk.

Thanks for clearing that confusion up Marcel. I have a new OES2sp1 box to deploy and was researching the EVMS configuration and now understand I dont have to worry about it anymore.
