Subject: Re: [users@httpd] question about turning off indexing

OK Why is this so? They are not in "root" they are in
their own filesystem under mounted on a dir in root.  

/public is its own volume group and its own logical
volume
Nothing is in rootvg. 

Also they reside on their own disk not even close to
the hdisk0 or hdisk1 drive.
