Can I create 3 EV partitions (in different Vault Stores) in that Centera pool??? I believe that is possible as a pool is used for data seperation on the Centera and not really affects EV function.

Should I be using different staging locations for collections?? Yes, I would recommend it and think in fact you may be forced to.

Stupid question.  Why are you using multiple partitions?

thanks, guys.

wayne - this is a migration effort and the current implementation has three partitions for different archiving functions.  i dont completely dig the logic surounding the initial config, myself.

i was planning to just bring everything over one for one.  Time and money are becoming more important factors in this as well.
