Hi Carl
I don’t have any direct metrics, but we frequently run our file systems above the 80% level, run split data and metadata.I haven’t experienced any GPFS performance issues that I can attribute to high utilization. I know the documentation talks about this, and the lower values of blocks and sub-blocks will make the file system work harder, but so far I haven’t seen any issues.

Hi Folk,
Does anyone have much experience with the performance of GPFS as it becomes close to full. In particular I am referring to split data/meta data, where the data pool goes over 80% utilisation.
How much degradation do you see above 80% usage, 90% usage?
Cheers,
Carl.
