Package: dstat Version: 0.5.10-1 Severity: normal dstat shouldn't include I/O to md software RAID devices in the total disk I/O, because such I/O also shows up for sda and sdb, etc.
This happens on i386 machines, not just AMD64, BTW. e.g. ----total-cpu-usage---- --disk/hda----disk/sda----disk/md6---disk/total> usr sys idl wai hiq siq|_read write _read write _read write _read write> .... 84 13 0 0 2 1| 24k 36.4M: 410B 34.9M: 0 34.9M:48.8k 108M> .... ^^ ^^ ^^ ^^^ that's while writing a big file to /home, which is mounted on /dev/md6, which is a RAID1 of partitions on hda and sda. My suggestion: simply omit md devices from the totals. Hopefully the code doesn't need to change too much to still be able to display them (e.g. dstat -D md3,total 10) even though they're not in the total. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-11-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_CA, LC_CTYPE=en_CA (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages dstat depends on: ii python 2.3.5-2 An interactive high-level object-o dstat recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
