It's late in the day, but my 2c here is to add that it's not always necessary
in Windows to use separate drive letters for LUNs - it's possible to 'mount' a
volume under a directory rather than eating letters. This would appear to be a
much more scalable approach - however, the difficulty as we discovered is that
under some operations (e.g. format/restore the db) drive space is calculated
based on the letter, even though there is space available in the actual db
directory - meaning incorrect calculations.
Just a warning - mounting volumes under a single letter and sub directories
_should_ work fine but doesn't. I'm not sure about IBM support on that either.
Lots of drive letters is the only way to go.
