Sorry, of course that's only the part of the story about sda. here is one complete run of iostat:


Device:         rrqm/s   wrqm/s     r/s     w/s   rsec/s   wsec/s avgrq-sz avgqu-sz   await  svctm  %util
sda               0.00     5.00    0.00    5.00     0.00    64.00    12.80     0.03    6.00   6.00   3.00
dm-0              0.00     0.00    0.00    8.00     0.00    64.00     8.00     0.04    4.38   3.75   3.00
dm-1              0.00     0.00    0.00    0.00     0.00     0.00     0.00     0.00    0.00   0.00   0.00

other runs show all null values for  dm-0 / dm-1, or values similar to these
