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