Uses

This query is useful to determine if the disk buffer capacity is sufficient for workload requirements or is approaching capacity limitations. The hourly view allows you to see if capacity is constrained at particular time periods—if so you can consider workload shifting. As disk buffer use approaches capacity limits, workload throughput and performance suffer.
