RE: Critical disk usage amount

I have some customers who are cheapy cheap and they run over 90%.  We
don't recommend it, but they have no problems at all.

You will have a problem if you try to go over 100%.  System shuts down.

But 25% of 256 gig is a nice amount of free space, so going to 100%
shouldn't sneak up on you.

Subject: Critical disk usage amount

I am trying to convince people here that we need to add more disk to our
AS400. We currently have 256GIG and are at 74% utilization. What common
usage percentage do people use as a threshold that, if we go beyond this
percentage, there will be issues?
We have cleared off as much as possible but people constantly want more
test information left on the box, so we continue to grow every month.
Thanks for the thoughts.
Dave
