Re: Disk space and performance

[MacWheel99@xxxxxxx]

I was just at an IBM class, whose instructor said if you let the AS400 use up 
more than 70% of you disk performance will degrade ... we did not get into 
how significant ... more than 90% and serious trouble ... I piped up in class 
that we once had over 100% because OS/400 can't calculate it right when M/36 
has a chunk of the disk space, and we had actual damage to files.  We are 
running around 75% right now which I consider to be pretty good considering 
our history.
