Hi,
I am probably not gonna get any reply but I should do this on general
principles anyway. I am using the "top" command on a machine and am
seeing 61% iowait. Now in terms machine is a Solaris 2.7 E4500. Is this
usual ? I have an oracle instance on the machine. I am trying to tune
it and I have started from system level to see if there is anything I
can improve. Seems like 61% iowait seems a little high to me. It is
probably coming from contention from disks. Question is, is this value
normal for iowait or not ? Thnx...
PS. Better be that group, I don't think sys. adm. are into tuning...
