Determine % of write IO from SAR

Determine % of write IO from SAR

Given "sar -d -b interval count" output, how can I determine the "Write" rate?

Or can't I??

I was trying to use the bwrite or lwrite as a percentage of BLKS/sec, but not sure that is accurate... Just trying to gauge write rate per second for remote replication purposes.

Sar is not the mos acurate, tool out there, if you have the posibility use glance or perfomance agen.

If u are stuck with sar, the actual writes to disk are in the bwrit/s column.

lwrit/s don't go all the way to disk, they are resolved by cache,etc.
Windows?, no thanks
