The RG utilization threshold value indicates the average overall RAID group utilization that you
define for an individual RAID group over the threshold duration. P9000 Performance Advisor
uses this value to verify whether the average overall RAID group utilization of each RAID group
is within or beyond the set threshold limit.
The default threshold value is 50%.

If the utilization of one RAID group exceeds the defined threshold, the

status icon appears.

RG Util (%)

The DKA Util (%) threshold value indicates the average overall utilization of the MPs that can

The default threshold value is 70%.

If the utilization of one exceeds the defined threshold limit, the
