Hi,
Has kernel-2.6.18-128.1.1 support for IO statistic for example when using "pidstat -d"?
Thanks in advance!
Is pidstat available in the 5.4 sysstat package or are you deviating from the stock sysstat package?
Really I don't know, still I don't test release 5.4 it would be nice that has it
According to the man page for pidstat, 'pidstat -d' only works with 2.6.20 kernels and later. Since pidstat is not installed by the sysstat package for 5.3 (which is what 2.6.18-128.* kernel is from) it is probably a safe assumption that it won't work.

I've found kernel 2.6.18-128 on http://www.gtlib.gatech.edu/pub/centos/5.3/updates/x86_64/RPMS/
I skipped kernel-2.6.18-164.el5, so I ask again: does kernel-2.6.18-164.el5 support IO statistic, I already know what man page says :) but I wonder if that kernel has that customization....
Thanks in advance!!
