lvmsadc(8)

NAME

lvmsadc - LVM system activity data collector

SYNOPSIS

lvmsadc   [-d|--debug]  [-h|--help]  [-v|--verbose]  [Log_
FilePath]

DESCRIPTION

lvmsadc collects the read/write statistics of the logical
volume manager to the file "LogFilePath" or to stdout if
no LogFilePath is given. If you want to have I/O statis
tics at hand for performance tuning, you should create a
cron entry for lvmsadc which runs it at regular intervals
eg. 10 minutes. You need to take care of size control of
the log file yourself!
OPTIONS
-d, --debug
Enables additional debugging output (if compiled
with DEBUG).
-h, --help
Print a usage message on standard output and exit
successfully.
-v, --verbose
Gives verbose runtime information about lvmsadc's
activities.

DIAGNOSTICS

lvmsadc returns an exit code of 0 for success or > 0 for
error:

1 no log file path and name on command line
2 error opening log file for append
3 no volume groups found for data collection
4 error closing log file
