=head1 NAME
pt-diskstats - Aggregate and summarize F</proc/diskstats>.
=head1 SYNOPSIS
Usage: pt-diskstats [OPTION...] [FILES]
pt-diskstats reads F</proc/diskstats> periodically, or files with the
contents of F</proc/diskstats>, aggregates the data, and prints it nicely.
=head1 RISKS
The following section is included to inform users about the potential risks,
whether known or unknown, of using this tool. The two main categories of risks
are those created by the nature of the tool (e.g. read-only tools vs. read-write
tools) and those created by bugs.
pt-diskstats is a read-only tool. It should be very low-risk.
At the time of this release, we know of no bugs that could cause serious harm
to users.
The authoritative source for updated information is always the online issue
tracking system. Issues that affect this tool will be marked as such. You can
see a list of such issues at the following URL:
L<http://www.percona.com/bugs/pt-diskstats>.
See also L<"BUGS"> for more information on filing bugs and getting help.
=head1 DESCRIPTION
pt-diskstats tool is similar to iostat, but has some advantages. It separates
reads and writes, for example, and computes some things that iostat does in
either incorrect or confusing ways. It is also menu-driven and interactive
with several different ways to aggregate the data, and integrates well with
the L<pt-collect> tool. These properties make it very convenient for quickly
drilling down into I/O performance at the desired level of granularity.
This program works in two main modes. One way is to process a file with saved
disk statistics, which you specify on the command line. The other way is to
start a background process gathering samples at intervals and saving them into
a file, and process this file in the foreground. In both cases, the tool is
interactively controlled by keystrokes, so you can redisplay and slice the
data flexibly and easily. If the tool is not attached to a terminal, it
doesn't run interactively; it just processes and prints its output, then exits.
Otherwise it loops until you exit with the 'q' key.
If you press the '?' key, you will bring up the interactive help menu that
shows which keys control the program.
Files should have this format:
TS <timestamp> <-- must start with a TS line.
<contents of /proc/diskstats>
TS <timestamp>
<contents of /proc/diskstats>
... et cetera
Note that previously the format was backwards -- It would put the timestamp
at the bottom of each sample, not the top. This was doubly troublesome:
It was inconsistent with how the rest of the Toolkit deals with timestamps,
and allowed malformed data to sit in the bottom of the file and give incorrect
results.
See L<http://aspersa.googlecode.com/svn/html/diskstats.html> for a detailed
example of using the tool.
=head1 OUTPUT
The columns are as follows:
=over
=item #ts
The number of seconds of samples in the line. If there is only one, then
the timestamp itself is shown, without the {curly braces}.
=item device
The device name. If there is more than one device, then instead the number
of devices aggregated into the line is shown, in {curly braces}.
=item rd_io_s
The number of IO reads per second, average, during the sampled interval.
=item rd_cnc
The average concurrency of the read operations, as computed by Little's Law
(a.k.a. queueing theory).
=item rd_rt
The average response time of the read operations, in milliseconds.
=item wr_mb_s
IO writes per second, average.
=item wr_cnc
Write concurrency, similar to read concurrency.
=item wr_rt
Write response time, similar to read response time.
=item busy
The fraction of time that the device had at least one request in progress;
this is what iostat calls %util (which is a misleading name).
=item in_prg
The number of requests that were in progress. Unlike the read and write
concurrencies, which are averages that are generated from reliable numbers,
this number is an instantaneous sample, and you can see that it might
represent a spike of requests, rather than the true long-term average.
=back
In addition to the above columns, there are a few columns that are hidden by
default. If you press the 'c' key, and then press Enter, you will blank out
the regular expression pattern that selects columns to display, and you will
then see the extra columns:
=over
=item rd_s
The number of reads per second.
=item rd_avkb
The average size of the reads, in kilobytes.
=item rd_mrg
The percentage of read requests that were merged together in the disk
scheduler before reaching the device.
=item rd_mb_s
The number of megabytes read per second, average, during the sampled interval.
=item wr_s, wr_avgkb, and wr_mrg, wr_mb_s
These are analogous to their C<rd_*> cousins.
=back
=head1 OPTIONS
This tool accepts additional command-line arguments. Refer to the
L<"SYNOPSIS"> and usage information for details.
=over
=item --config
type: Array
Read this comma-separated list of config files; if specified, this must be the
first option on the command line.
=item --columns
type: string; default: cnc|rt|busy|prg|time|io_s
Perl regex of which columns to include.
=item --devices
type: string
Perl regex of which devices to include.
=item --group-by
type: string; default: disk
Group-by mode (default disk); specify one of the following:
disk - Each line of output shows one disk device.
sample - Each line of output shows one sample of statistics.
all - Each line of output shows one sample and one disk device.
=item --sample-time
type: int; default: 1
In --group-by sample mode, include INTERVAL seconds of samples per group.
=item --save-samples
type: string
File to save diskstats samples in; these can be used for later analysis.
=item --iterations
type: int
When in interactive mode, stop after N samples.
=item --redisplay-interval
type: int; default: 1
When in interactive mode, wait N seconds before printing to the screen.
=item --interval
type: int; default: 1
Sample /proc/diskstats every N seconds.
=item --zero-rows
Show rows with all zero values.
=item --help
Show help and exit.
=item --version
Show version and exit.
=back
=head1 ENVIRONMENT
This tool does not use any environment variables.
=head1 SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
This tool requires Perl v5.8.0 or newer and the F</proc> filesystem, unless
reading from files.

This tool is part of Percona Toolkit, a collection of advanced command-line
tools developed by Percona for MySQL support and consulting. Percona Toolkit
was forked from two projects in June, 2011: Maatkit and Aspersa. Those
projects were created by Baron Schwartz and developed primarily by him and
Daniel Nichter, both of whom are employed by Percona. Visit
