28.Dt GSTAT 8
29.Os
30.Sh NAME
31.Nm gstat
32.Nd print statistics about GEOM disks
33.Sh SYNOPSIS
34.Nm
35.Op Fl abBcdops
36.Op Fl f Ar filter
37.Op Fl I Ar interval
38.Sh DESCRIPTION
39The
40.Nm
41utility can be used to monitor I/O transactions of
42.Xr geom 4
43devices.
44.Pp
45The options are as follows:
46.Bl -tag -width indent
47.It Fl a
48Only display providers that are at least 0.1% busy.
49.It Fl b
50Batch mode.
51Collect numbers, print and exit.
52Default if stdout is not a tty.
53.It Fl B
54Endless batch mode.
55Same as batch mode, but does not exit after collecting
56the first set of data.
57.It Fl c
58Enable display of
59.Xr geom 4
60consumers too.
61The default is to show statistics only for
62.Xr geom 4
63producers.
64.It Fl C
65CSV output mode.
66Implies endless batch mode, but output is in the form of comma-separated
67values, with ISO 8601-like timestamps.
68.It Fl d
69Enable display of statistics for delete
70.Pq Dv BIO_DELETE
71operations.
72.It Fl f Ar filter
73A regular expression that can be used to only show statistics for some
74devices.
75Only devices with the names matching
76.Ar filter
77will be displayed.
78The format of the regular expression is described in
79.Xr re_format 7 .
80.It Fl o
81Enable display of statistics for other operations
82.Pq Dv BIO_FLUSH .
83.It Fl s
84Enable blocks' size statistics.
85.It Fl I Ar interval
86Refresh the
87.Nm
88display every
89.Ar interval
90microseconds.
91Adding a suffix of
92.Cm s , ms ,
93or
94.Cm us
95(the default) indicates that the update interval is specified in
96seconds, milliseconds, or microseconds, respectively.
97.It Fl p
98Only display physical providers (those with rank of 1).
99.El
100.Sh INTERACTIVE COMMANDS
101These commands are currently recognized if
102.Nm
103is not running in batch mode:
104.Bl -tag -width indent
105.It Ic <
106Halve the update interval.
107.It Ic >
108Double the update interval.
109.It Ic c
110Toggle display of
111.Xr geom 4
112consumers.
113.It Ic f
114Display only devices with the names matching regular expression filter
115(prompt for filter).
116.It Ic F
117Remove device filter.
118.It Ic q
119Quit
120.Nm .
