Hi All,

I am trying to determine disk utilization using the "iostat" command.

bash-2.03# iostat -n -M -D 2 5
       c0t0d0 c0t1d0 c0t6d0
 rps wps util rps wps util rps wps util
   1 0 0.5 1 0 0.3 0 0 0.0
   0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0
   0 1 1.1 0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0
   0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0
   0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0 0 0 0.0

How do I know how much utilization, rps, and wps are good/acceptable?

This is a 36GB SCSI disk on an E220.

Thanks,
Anjan
