Space Utilization

The Space Utilization section of the General tab displays information about used space and free space in pie chart format for the following database system, data, and index files:

Free DBspace
The amount of free space available.
Total DBspace
The total amount of space allocated for the dbspace.
DB Utilization
The utilitzation percentage is the percentage of the Total DBSpace actually being used for data.
When the NBDB or the BMRDB databases are created, extra space is allocated so that contiguous space is available as needed. As a result, a low space utilization percentage is a positive indication unless the database is very large and disk space is in short supply.

The Space Utilization section also includes the location and file size of the:

•Transaction log

•Mirrored log (if one exists)
