NAME    [Toc]    [Back]

     gstat -- print statistics about GEOM disks

SYNOPSIS    [Toc]    [Back]

     gstat [-c] [-I interval]

DESCRIPTION    [Toc]    [Back]

     The gstat utility can be used to monitor I/O transactions of geom(4)
     devices.

     The options are as follows:

     -c      Enable display of geom(4) consumers too.  The default is to show
	     statistics only for geom(4) producers.

     -I interval
	     Refresh the gstat display every interval microseconds.  Adding a
	     suffix of s, ms, or us (the default) indicates that the update
	     interval is specified in seconds, milliseconds, or microseconds,
	     respectively.

DIAGNOSTICS    [Toc]    [Back]

     The gstat utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.

HISTORY    [Toc]    [Back]

     A gstat utility appeared in FreeBSD 5.0.

BUGS    [Toc]    [Back]

     The gstat utility only works interactively.  It should probably detect
     when it is run non-interactively and produce simple ASCII text output.
     Otherwise, this utility should probably be folded into systat(1) which
     only works interactively and is the obvious utility to run for various
     other forms of system statistics.
