Fio will write logs per job but you might use the fiologparser script to get what you want: # fiologparser.py # # This tool lets you parse multiple fio log files and look at interaval # statistics even when samples are non-uniform. For instance: # # fiologparser.py -s *bw* # # to see per-interval sums for all bandwidth logs or: # # fiologparser.py -a *clat* # # to see per-interval average completion latency. -- 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
