Hello,
        I recently upgraded to RH 7.2. I notice some disk activity hitting the root
disk every couple seconds. I don't know what it is, and am having a tough
time figuring it out... I got rid of most of the cron entries, and stopped
several services from running, and left a fairly slimmed down system, and I
still can't seem to figure out what is hitting the disk. Looking at
/var/log/cron, the only thing left running every 10 minutes is
/usr/lib/sa/sa1, and that activity does not co-incide with the activity I am
hearing on the disk.
        Another file in /var/log that is often being updated is /var/log/pacct.
Which I have figured out is the process accounting data file. I took a look
at iostat, but that only showed me that there was activity on the disk, not
what it was. I would like to know what's going on. fuser shows what's going
on, but doesn't seem specific enough.
        Any suggestions on a tool to see what application is hitting the disk? - Or
any suggestions on places to look.
-Thanks, RYAN
