The idea of striping everything above all disks sounds perfect, but: Doesn't it collide with the "availabillity"-settings in some manner? And as long as the chunks are 1GB, none of your data is really striped over more than a few of them - unless you have some
really big files.
Further more, on bigger machines the formula mentioned above leads to (in my opinion) absurd numbers - I am NOT going to set the growth increment to (960 x 6) / 7 = 822GB!
Daily compactcpg, weekly tunesys, and the default settings for growth increment do a perfect job on our 10400.
As the Best practices Guide for InformOS 3.1.3 (4AA4-4524ENW, June 2014, Rev. 4) suggests:

Best practice: When creating CPGs, always accept defaults if possible.
