Re: Percent Busy for SSDs

[Rob Berendt <robertowenberendt@xxxxxxxxx>]

Coworker asked me:  "Percent of what?".  The help on percent busy says it
takes in "characteristics of the type of disk unit".
Based on that, might that mean that the same percent busy goals do not
change?

Of course, shop floor people look at 100% as a goal to strive to hit.  Just
means you're getting your money's worth out of the equipment.  :-)
