dstat-0.7.2 - replacement for vmstat, iostat, netstat etc.

#1 Post by jpeps »

"Dstat is a versatile replacement for vmstat, iostat, netstat and ifstat. Dstat overcomes some of their limitations and adds some extra features, more counters and flexibility. Dstat is handy for monitoring systems during performance tuning tests, benchmarks or troubleshooting."

Would it be better to put this in the Network section? I can move it there.

Hi Flash,

While it checks network "dstat -n", it's more of a general stat utility for measuring usage involving memory, disk, cpu, interrupts, paging, etc, etc.

Tried installing both the small and full versions. Apparently both require Python to run?

Never mind; finally saw it in the tiny print at the top.
