I made the mistake of looking at disk IO numbers in two different ways
now I'm confused, because they give inconsistent answers.
No, I haven't. I view my problem as being TOO MANY different sources to begin with :-).
I've never heard of a "monitor" command for unix, and there isn't one on this Centos installation. I'm open to persuasion here. And I haven't looked into whether this info is directly accessible in the proc filesystem or something yet either.
Perhaps a yum install monitor would give you a cure.
HTH.
[ddb@prc-mn-lnx01 dev]$ sudo yum install monitor Loaded plugins: fastestmirror Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile * base: mirror.sanctuaryhost.com * centosplus: mirrors.gigenet.com * epel: mirrors.servercentral.net * extras: mirrors.serveraxis.net * rpmforge: ftp-stud.fht-esslingen.de * updates: mirror.team-cymru.org Setting up Install Process No package monitor available. Nothing to do
No, doesn't help.
Also, if you're claiming that the answers I get from monitor would be correct, I'd like to understand why you think that set will be right in preference to vmstat and snmp.
Or is it just that that's the package you're comfortable with?
