by Are there any utilities available that will monitor disk subsystem
activity? I'm looking for a TOP like tool that displays number of
I/Os per second to each of my six disk, and perhaps page and swapping
rates.
Is the information even available in /proc anywhere? /proc/stat
appears to have a fair amount of information, but I havn't stumbled
across any definition of what all the fields are.
If the information is available, and no utility exist, I would consider
writing one.
