System Administration Commands fsstat(1M)
NAME
fsstat - report file system statistics
SYNOPSIS
fsstat [-a|f|i|n|v] [-T | u|d] {-F | {fstype|path}...}
[interval [count]]DESCRIPTION
fsstat reports kernel file operation activity by the file
system type (fstype) or by the path name, which is converted to a mount point. The first set of lines of output reports all activity since: o The file system module was loaded (in the case of fstype) o The file system was mounted (in the case of mount point) Statistics are gathered at the file system independent layer at both the fstype and the mount point levels. However, not all file system types are represented in the gathering of statistics. (See the NOTES section of this man page.)The output of fsstat is dependent on the mode (option)
requested. All statistic fields are displayed using "smart numbers" which automatically scale the units in a human readable form that fits in a maximum of 5 characters. For example: 100 is displayed as 100 2048 is displayed as 2K 3000000 is displayed as 2.86M The unit modifiers are: K (Kbyte), M (Mbyte), G (Gbyte), T (terabyte), P (petabyte), and E (exabyte).During the execution of fsstat, the state of the system can
change. If relevant, a state change message is included inthe fsstat output in one of the following forms:

System Administration Commands fsstat(1M)
<> After the state change messages are displayed, fsstat con-
tinues to display the statistics as directed. If all of thefstypes and mount points that fsstat was reporting on are no
longer available, then fsstat exits.
The user is required to specify the -F option (all available
file system types) or a list of one or more fstypes and/or mount points. The default report shows general file system activity. This display combines similar operations into general categories as follows: new file Number of creation operations for file system objects (for example, files, directories, symlinks, etc.) name remov Number of name removal operations name chng Number of name change operationsattr get Number of object attribute retrieval opera-
tions attr set Number of object attribute change operations lookup ops Number of object lookup operations rddir ops Number of read directory operations read ops Number of data read operations read bytes Bytes transferred by data read operations write ops Number of data write operationsSunOS 5.11 Last change: 5 Jan 2007 2

tions.

rddir Number of directory read calls symlink Number of symlink creation calls rdlink Number of symlink read calls The entity being reported on (fstype or mount point) is displayed in the last column.-v Reports the activity for calls to the virtual
memory operations. The following statistics are reported. map Number of calls mapping a fileaddmap Number of calls setting additional map-
ping to a mapped file delmap Number of calls deleting mapping to a file getpag Number of calls retrieving a page of data from a file putpag Number of calls writing a page of data to a file pagio Number of calls to transfer pages in file system swap files The entity being reported on (fstype or mount point) is displayed in the last column.-F Report on all available file system types.
-T u|d Display a time stamp.
Specify u for a printed representation of the internal representation of time (see time(2)) Specify d for the standard date format. (See date(1)). The time stamp is only used when an interval is set.SunOS 5.11 Last change: 5 Jan 2007 5

OPERANDS The following operands are supported: count Display only count reports. fstype Explicitly specify the file system type(s) to be reported. The file system module must be loaded. interval Report once each interval seconds. path Specify the path(s) of the mount point(s) to be reported. If path is not a mount point, the mount point containing path will be determined and displayed in the output. If no interval and no count are specified, a single reportis printed and fsstat exits. If an interval is specified but
no count is specified, fsstat prints reports every interval
seconds indefinitely until the command is interrupted.EXAMPLES

ATTRIBUTES
See attributes(5) for descriptions of the following attri-
butes:____________________________________________________________
| ATTRIBUTE TYPE | ATTRIBUTE VALUE |
|_____________________________|_____________________________|
| Availability | SUNWcs ||_____________________________|_____________________________|
| CSI | Enabled ||_____________________________|_____________________________|
| Interface Stability | See below. ||_____________________________|_____________________________|
The command-line options are Uncommitted. The human-readable
output is not considered an interface.SEE ALSO
date(1), time(2), attributes(5) NOTESAll display options (-a, -f, -i, -n, -v) are mutually
exclusive. Entering more than one of these options will result in an error. The fstype and path operands must appear after the option, but before the interval or count on the command line. Forexample, "fsstat -a fstype interval". Preference is given to
fstype so that if a user wishes to see the statistics for a directory that has the same name as an fstype (for example, ufs), then the path must be specified unambiguously (for example, ./ufs). Similarly, in order to define a file with a numeric name (for example, "10") from an interval or countoperand, the name should be prefixed accordingly (for exam-
ple, ./10).SunOS 5.11 Last change: 5 Jan 2007 9
System Administration Commands fsstat(1M)
When an interval is used, headers repeat after more than 12 lines of statistics have been displayed and the set of lines to be displayed in the current interval have completed.Statistics are not displayed for all pseudo-filesystems. The
output displayed with the -F option shows which of the
loaded filesystem types are supported.Unbundled file systems may not be recognized by fsstat.
The command-line options are classified as Uncommitted and
could change. The output is not considered to be an inter-
face. The construction of higher level software tools dependon either the command-line options or the output of fsstat
is not recommended.SunOS 5.11 Last change: 5 Jan 2007 10
