The Disk Usage workspace is comprised of four views and provides an at-a-glance snapshot of your disk condition. The views for this workspace are:
The Disk Utilization for Mount Point workspace and the Disk Usage Details workspace can be accessed by right-clicking this workspace.
This chart provides information on the top ten subdirectories using hard drive space.
This chart presents a diagramtic view of the percent of inodes used by the top ten drive space components.
The Disk Utilization report helps you solve disk related problems quickly by providing information on devices with excessive I/O activity and/or long service times. New data includes average disk queue length and average number of processes waiting for service.
By viewing monitored disk input/output (I/O) data collected by the UNIX agents, you can:
Improve the performance of your UNIX system by quickly and accurately pinpointing how your system transfers data from disk to memory
Increase your efficiency by keeping you constantly informed of how the disk performs
You monitor the performance of disks in your system to make sure they operate smoothly. Disk performance has a major impact on the overall functioning of your UNIX system. If disk performance is poor, it affects jobs that require a large amount of disk I/O, virtual memory functioning, and the time required to run a program.
Use this report to identify disk performance problems caused by slow rates of data transfer from disk to memory, or high disk usage.
This graph shows monitored disk input/output (I/O) data collected by the UNIX OS Agents. With this information you can:
Improve the performance of your UNIX system by quickly and accurately pinpointing how your system transfers data from disk to memory
Increase your efficiency by keeping you constantly informed of how the disk performs
