SSD Endurance

SSD endurance reports the remaining life expectancy of an SSD. Endurance properties are reported on the BUI Maintenance > Hardware chassis details page and in the CLI maintenance chassis disk context. You can set a threshold alert when an SSD exceeds a specified percentage. For example, set an alert to occur when one or more SSD devices exceeds a 95% threshold. For more information, see Threshold Alerts in Oracle ZFS Storage Appliance Administration Guide, Release OS8.7.0.

You can use this feature to monitor the life expectancy of an SSD. For example, if SSD endurance reports 50% after two years, the SSD is estimated to last for another two years, assuming the workload is consistent.


Note -  Do not use reported SSD endurance percentage as an indication to replace the SSD. SSD warranty replacements are made only when a failure is reported.
