When I run this command against my filers what are the recommended values that these should always be at or around?

Hi,

Well, how long is the piece of string? Are you trying to troubleshoot anything, prove a point, or something else?

The stats you posted show a filer doing pretty much nothing.

Regards,
Radek

Some things to look out for

- long ranges where the Disk Util is around 98% (i.e. more than a minute or so) when the filer does *nothing else* (i.e. no SnapMirror, no backup, not much client activity goig on etc.) might indicate problems with disks or RAID layout

- multiple consecutive CP Types with a capital B should also be avoided (generally, when you see ~5 or so consecutive B's you might have a problem with your aggregates)

Note that these only *hint* to problems, they are not definite indications
