That's nothing to do with ZFS. Solaris 10 defines iowait to be exactly zero. Which it is, being essentially meaningless. Things like vmstat and sar are a bit old anyway; I'm playing with replacements for sar. Top is still pretty useful. For zfs, zpool iostat has some utility, but I find fsstat to be pretty useful. -- -Peter Tribble http://www.petertribble.co.uk/ - http://ptribble.blogspot.com/ _______________________________________________ zfs-discuss mailing list zfs-discuss@opensolaris.org http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/zfs-discuss
