offset - informix chunk

Hello all,

I am trying to add chunks to my informix dataspace. I have one dataspace ( the rootdbs ) and the new chunk is a raw device. Precisely slice1 on my new external harddisk.

The question is, what should be the offset value. The document says, the offset is used by the engine to identify the beginning of the file. Can I give some arbitary value, so that it skips the initial blocks ( like 300 ). Or is there any logical method to identify the best offset ?

The informix version is 5.1 and platform is Sun OS 5.5.1

Thanks in advance.
