Measures reported by DiskActivityAggTest

This test is used to measure the aggregated input/output utilization of each physical disk of one or more systems.

 The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Avg_percent_busy Indicates the percentage of elapsed time during which the disk is busy processing requests (i.e., reads or writes). % Comparing the percentage of time that the different disks are busy, an administrator can determine whether the application load is properly balanced across the different disks.
Total_read_rate Indicates the number of reads happening on a logical disk per second. Reads/sec  
Total_write_rate Indicates the number of writes happening on a local disk per second. Writes/sec
