Hi, I know when traditional vols are in use, you don't want to let them get too close to full because performance will be affected.
But what about using FlexVols and Aggrs ?
I have a few Aggrs that are at 100%. But the FlexVols in those Aggrs are mostly under 50%.
I had a NetApp support person tell me that its bad to have Aggrs at 100%, even if the FlexVols are not full.
What's the answer here. Does having Aggrs at 100% because the FlexVols contained in them are sized to fill the Aggr present a performance issue ?
I would think that as long as the flexvols are not close to full, its ok to have the aggr's at 100%.
Thanks,
Paul
