Measures reported by ZoneDiskSpaceTest

This test monitors the space usage of every disk partition on each zone of a Solaris virtual server. The measures made by this test are as follows:

Measurement Description Measurement Unit Interpretation
Total_capacity

The total capacity of a disk partition MB  
Used_space The amount of space used in a disk partition MB  
Free_space The current free space available for each disk partition MB  
Percent_usage The percentage of space usage on each disk partition Percent In case of drives that the small zones share with the base operating system, the value of this measure will be the same as that of the base. This is because, small zones have only 'read-only' access to the shared drives. In case of drives/directories to which the zone has full access, a value close to 100% indicates very high space usage. Due to his problem condition, applications executing on the zone may not be able to write data to the disk partition(s).
