Hello Davide, vmstat -p uses the information contained in /proc/diskstats. Can you send me the output of 'grep sda /proc/diskstats' ? Perhaps the format has changed. As a reference, this is what I get as the output and the vmstat /proc/diskstats: 8 0 sda 256027 72376 26398367 1344012 4876838 6281205 89331364 245486108 0 9327416 246859372 8 1 sda1 191 333 3989 912 193 17 1524 3184 0 2280 4096 8 2 sda2 130 420 4336 800 86 936 8176 496 0 1072 1296 8 3 sda3 255680 71512 26388946 1342144 4876559 6280252 89321664 245482428 0 9325624 246853824 vmstat: sda1 reads read sectors writes requested writes 191 3989 193 1524 It's a pretty simple program, basically takes column 4,6,8 and 10 and prints them, matching on column 3. - Craig -- Craig Small GnuPG:1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au http://www.debian.org/ Debian GNU/Linux, software should be Free -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
