Collection rule for the performance counter Physical Disk\\% Idle Time
This rule collects performance data for the Physical Disk\% Idle Time performance counter. The collected values are accessible in performance views and reports.
This metric exposes the percentage of elapsed time that the selected disk drive was idle.
The value returned by the agent is the average rate for the preceding 5 minutes.
Monitoring of physical disks is disabled by default. Enable monitoring by enabling the object discovery named 'Discover Solaris 11 Physical Disks.' Physical disks are not discovered for agents that are installed in a non-global zone.
