I may just not know how to do this I know about the ability to touch /tmp/fio-dump-status which will dump the output of fio to a file or stdout while the test is running. What I am looking for is to be able to dump the write_iops_log while fio is running so that I can see the point in time average IOps for a given interval For example if I have log_avg_msec=60000 it will write an iops.log file with 60second intervals, unfortunately this file doesn't get created until fio exits. Is there a way to get this to dump on a regular basis (or by touching a file in /tmp) so that I can tail the output? I am looking for a way to get point in time status via a script and the output from tmp-dump-status only gives me averages from the start of time rather than the last interval Thank you, Kurt -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe fio" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
