Abstract

A system and method for managing soft reserve space within a database system including fast solid state storage devices (SSDs) and traditional hard drive storage device (HDDs). The system and method monitors actual spool use within the database system and dynamically modifies the soft-reserve space as a percentage of total storage space in response to changes in spool use.
