iotop命令是专门显示硬盘IO的命令，界面风格类似top命令。这个命令只有在kernelv2.6.20及以后的版本中才有。

 

1、直接yum安装，rh6的光盘里有包。

yum install iotop

 

2、命令参数介绍

 

-o, --only

       Only show processes or threads actually doing I/O, instead of showing all processes or threads. This can be dynamically toggled by pressing o.

-b, --batch

       Turn on non-interactive mode.  Useful for logging I/O usage over time.

-n NUM, --iter=NUM

       Set the number of iterations before quitting (never quit by default).  This is most useful in non-interactive mode.

-d SEC, --delay=SEC

       Set the delay between iterations in seconds (1 second by default).  Accepts non-integer values such as 1.1 seconds.

-p PID, --pid=PID

       A list of processes/threads to monitor (all by default).

-u USER, --user=USER

       A list of users to monitor (all by default)

-P, --processes

       Only show processes. Normally iotop shows all threads.

-a, --accumulated

       Show accumulated I/O instead of bandwidth. In this mode, iotop shows the amount of I/O processes have done since iotop started.

-k, --kilobytes

       Use  kilobytes instead of a human friendly unit. This mode is useful when scripting the batch mode of iotop. Instead of choosing the most appropriate unit iotop will dis‐

       play all sizes in kilobytes.

-t, --time

       Add a timestamp on each line (implies --batch). Each line will be prefixed by the current time.

-q, --quiet

       suppress some lines of header (implies --batch). This option can be specified up to three times to remove header lines.

       -q     column names are only printed on the first iteration,

       -qq    column names are never printed,

       -qqq   the I/O summary is never printed.

 

3、使用截图

 

 

 

[root@localhost tmp]# iotop -o 

 

 

iotop命令的键盘快捷键：

1、左右箭头改变排序方式，默认是按IO排序

2、r键是反向排序

3、o键是只显示有IO输出的进程

4、同样q是退出
