|
|
Description:
|
|
The notify_free file is read-only and specifies the number of
|
|
swap slot free notifications received by this device. These

|
|
Description:
|
|

|
|
Description:
|
|
The compr_data_size file is read-only and specifies compressed
|
|
size of data stored in this disk. So, compression ratio can be
|
|
calculated using orig_data_size and this statistic.
