Sure, but first some more detail, is there a particular protocol you are interested in in particular? SMB or RPC response times?
I often create advance graphs for service response times for both SMB and RPC (nfs) Since the graphs are drawn ove each other from the bottom (fifth) to top I often produce Advanced iostat for smb.time and rpc.time to plot response times. Select tick interval==1s pixelspertick==5 and specify the graphs as: Graph1: field==smb.time filter==smb.time type==AVG (average) and drawingstyle==LINE Graph2: field==smb.time filter==smb.time type==MIN and drawingstyle==BAR or IMPULSE Graph3: field==smb.time filter==smb.time type==MAX and drawingstyle==BAR The same config works fine for rpc.time as well. For client workload/concurrency I usually plot it as tick interval==0.010 pixelspertick==2 and a single graph Graph1: field==rpc.time filter==rpc.time type==LOAD drawingstyle==IMPULSE this produces beautiful graphs of how much concurrency the clients are generating (see manpage for LOAD) it shows very clearly how fast the client issues new i/o and how many i/os the client issues concurrently, how many i/o/s in flight the client keeps at a time. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kevin" Sent: Monday, October 27, 2003 2:30 PM Subject: [Ethereal-users] IOStats Advanced Examples? > Would anybody have an example of the use of IOStats with the Advanced > Units?
