Howdy all, This thread generated no traction on fedora-list so I'll ask here as there might be more chance somebody here can answer the kernel hooks related question. Is there a cool curses app that can tell you which PID is writing to which file handle, on what device and at what speed ? I've been wondering how to get this sort of info out of existing tools (lsof, top, etc) without success. Would the right kernel hooks be in place to at least write something like this ? iostat is useful, but I'm after something a little more intuitive, iostat can't handle a PID as an argument for example. NAME PID BLOCKS/W BLOCKS/R KB/s FD "FILE NAME" DEVICE httpd 4836 45 1 53 13 /var/log/httpd/xxx /dev/hda2 And so on.. Diagnosing disk IO problems would be far easier if one had a tool that could give "at a glace" detail into what is doing what and where.. iostat shows you what disk, or which partition is busy, but not what PID is doing the i/o. So one must go back to lsof and get a list of open handles on that partition or device and guess which one is pushing the ops/blocks. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
