iowait alert

Hello ,

Following the upgrade of our corporate version of Splunk,
we noticed a recurring problem with IOwait
(for your information, we went from version 8.1.0.4 to 8.2.2.1).

Below are the characteristics of the machine that runs Splunk in standalone:

- 4 CPUs
- 8 GB of RAM
- 50 GB of disk space

We did not have this alert on previous version 8.1.0.4,
can you give us the reason for the alert since this version upgrade ?

Best regards.
