You have 16 queues in this output (0 - 15) which means you asked for 8 LRUS (8 pairs == 16 queues). The % value in the output is the % of the buffers on each of the queues in the pair relative to the pair as a whole. So looking at the first pair: + 0 f 98 77.8% 126 + 1 m 28 22.2% There are 126 buffers on this LRU, 98 of them (77.8%) on the free queue and 28 of them (22.2%) on the modified queue. So the answers to your questions are: yes, both. Dave Dave Kosenko davek@summitdata.com Director of Training Services (732) 469-4070 Summit Data Group (an Informix Authorized Education Center)
