24 iostat, vmstat and mpstat Examples for Linux Performance Monitoring by RAMESH NATARAJAN on JULY 18, 2011


This article provides a total of 24 examples on iostat, vmstat, and mpstat commands.

iostat reports CPU, disk I/O, and NFS statistics. vmstat reports virtual memory statistics. mpstat reports processors statictics. This article is part of our ongoing Linux performance monitoring series.

Please note that iostat and vmstat are part of the sar utility. You should install sysstat package as explained in our sar (sysstat) article to get iostat and vmstat working.

IOSTAT EXAMPLES 1. iostat – Basic example Iostat without any argument displays information about the CPU usage, and I/O statistics about all the partitions on the system as shown below.

To execute every 2 seconds for a total of 3 times, do the following.

$ iostat 2 3 10. iostat – Display LVM statistic (and version) To display the LVM statistics use option -N as shown below.

$ iostat -N To display the version of iostat, use -V. This will really display the version information of sysstat, as iostat is part of sysstat package.

$ iostat -V sysstat version 7.0.2 (C) Sebastien Godard VMSTAT EXAMPLES 11. vmstat – Basic example vmstat by default will display the memory usage (including swap) as shown below.

$ vmstat procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu------

r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st

vmstat output contains the following fields:

Procs – r: Total number of processes waiting to run Procs – b: Total number of busy processes Memory – swpd: Used virtual memory Memory – free: Free virtual memory Memory – buff: Memory used as buffers Memory – cache: Memory used as cache. Swap – si: Memory swapped from disk (for every second) Swap – so: Memory swapped to disk (for every second) IO – bi: Blocks in. i.e blocks received from device (for every second) IO – bo: Blocks out. i.e blocks sent to the device (for every second) System – in: Interrupts per second System – cs: Context switches CPU – us, sy, id, wa, st: CPU user time, system time, idle time, wait time 12. vmstat – Display active and inactive memory By default vmstat doesn’t display this information. Use option -a, to display active and inactive memory information as shown below.


$ vmstat -a procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu------

r  b   swpd   free  inact active   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st
0  0 305416 253820 1052680 2688928    2    2     4     1    0    0  6  1 92  2  0

13. vmstat – Display number of forks since last boot This displays all the fork system calls made by the system since the last boot. This displays all fork, vfork, and clone system call counts.

$ vmstat -f

    81651975 forks

14. vmstat – Execute Every x seconds (for y number of times) To execute every 2 seconds, do the following. You have to press Ctrl-C to stop this.

$ vmstat 2 procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu-----

r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st
1  0      0 537144 182736 6789320    0    0     0     0    1    1  0  0 100  0  0

.. To execute every 2 seconds for 10 times, do the following. You don’t need to press Ctrl-C in this case. After executing 10 times, it will stop automatically.

$ vmstat 2 10 procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu-----

r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st

.. 15. vmstat – Display timestamp When you use vmstat to monitor the memory usage repeately, it would be nice to see the timestap along with every line item. Use option -t to display the time stamp as shown below.

$ vmstat -t 1 100 procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu------ ---timestamp---

r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st
0  0      0 3608728 148368 3898200    0    0     0     0    1    1  0  0 100  0  0     2011-07-09 21:16:28 PDT
0  0      0 3608728 148368 3898200    0    0     0     0   60   15  0  0 100  0  0     2011-07-09 21:16:29 PDT
0  0      0 3608712 148368 3898200    0    0     0     0   32   28  0  0 100  0  0     2011-07-09 21:16:30 PDT

For me, the timestamp option worked in the following version.

$ vmstat -V procps version 3.2.8 Note: If you use a older version of vmstat, option -t might not be available. In that case, use the method we suggested earlier to display timestamp in vmstat output.

16. vmstat – Display slab info Use option -m, to display the slab info as shown below.

$ vmstat -m Cache Num Total Size Pages fib6_nodes 5 113 32 113 ip6_dst_cache 4 15 256 15 ndisc_cache 1 15 256 15 RAWv6 7 10 768 5 UDPv6 0 0 640 6 tw_sock_TCPv6 0 0 128 30 ... 17. vmstat – Display statistics in a table format Instead of displays the values in the record format, you can display the output of vmstat in table format using option -s as shown below.

$ vmstat -s

     4149928  total memory
     3864824  used memory
     2606664  active memory

   368965706 IO-wait cpu ticks
     1180468 IRQ cpu ticks

.. 18. vmstat – Display disk statistics Use option -d to display the disk statistics as shown below. This displays the reads, writes, and I/O statistics of the disk.

$ vmstat -d disk- ------------reads------------ ------------writes----------- -----IO------

$ vmstat 1 3 procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu-----

r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st

Use option -w to increase the width of the output columns as shown below. This give better readability.

$ vmstat -w 1 3 procs -------------------memory------------------ ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu-------

21. vmstat – Display in MB By default vmstat displays the memory information in kb. To disply in MB, use the option “-S m” as shown below.

$ vmstat -S m procs -----------memory---------- ---swap-- -----io---- --system-- -----cpu------

r  b   swpd   free   buff  cache   si   so    bi    bo   in   cs us sy id wa st

MPSTAT EXAMPLES 22. mpstat – Display basic info By default mpstat displays CPU statistics as shown below.

$ mpstat Linux 2.6.32-100.28.5.el6.x86_64 (dev-db) 07/09/2011

10:25:32 PM CPU  %user  %nice  %sys %iowait  %irq  %soft  %steal  %idle intr/s 10:25:32 PM all 5.68 0.00 0.49 2.03 0.01 0.02 0.00 91.77 146.55 23. mpstat – Display all information Option -A, displays all the information that can be displayed by the mpstat command as shown below. This is really equalivalent to “mpstat -I ALL -u -P ALL” command.
