I'd be curious to know what number he feels is "ok". 90%? And why?

Subject: High disk capacity dangers

Just wanted to run this by everyone here, I have a 9.2.0.6 database on HP-UX. Some of my read only tablespaces are on a physical disk that I keep
at about 99% capacity (it's not going to grow obviously, it's read-only).
The new Unix SA is saying that it's unacceptable and dangerous to keep a

disk at 98,99, or 100% capacity. I always thought it could be even at 100%
capacity without any problems.

Is there any reason that anyone knows of as to why a disk should not be at
99% or 100% capacity?

Thank you!
