What???

Summary

Obnoxio The Clown posted odd read-ahead figures (ixda-RA, idx-RA, da-RA, RA-pgsused) that did not add up and asked what was going on. Roy Mercer suggested comparing with sysmaster:sysprofile in case a counter had gone negative; Obnoxio said the numbers matched exactly. Two other posters replied only with jokes. No explanation was given.

Well, I'm stumped: ixda-RA idx-RA da-RA RA-pgsused 8899374 62466 4949684 32483179 Can anyone tell me what on earth is going on? (It's not a cut and paste error!) -- Bye now, Obnoxio "It's easier with pictures." -- Cosmo

Compare these to select * from sysmaster:sysprofile. Maybe one of the numbers rolled over to a (-) negative FYI
