Data Source

It is calculated using the Instance Disk Performance metric which in turn collects data from the GV$ASM_DISKGROUP and GV$ASM_DISK views for 10g Release 1 and the GV$ASM_DISKGROUP_STAT and GV$ASM_DISK_STAT views for 10g Release 2.

To calculate the average reads per second for each disk, the total number of read responses is divided by the total read time during the collection interval. This data is aggregated by the disk group name to get the average reads per second of a disk group.
