Got a question about the consistency point types as reported by sysstat... Many of the types are pretty clear:

B Back to back CPs (CP generated CP) F CP caused by full NVLog S CP caused by snapshot operation T CP caused by timer : continuation of CP from previous interval # continuation of CP from previous interval, and the NVLog for the next CP is now full, so that the next CP will be of type B.

but I don't understand what these mean:

H CP caused by high water mark L CP caused by low water mark U CP caused by flush Z CP caused by internal sync

Until next time...
