The PHYSSLICE parameter specifies the name of the dbslice that contains the physical logs. The PHYSSLICE parameter is a global configuration parameter. You cannot specify it in the coserver-specific section of the ONCONFIG file. To reduce disk contention, you can use this parameter to move the physical log to a dbslice other than the root dbslice.
