vmstat measures virtual memory or swap performance.

other tools measure disk performance. Attaching some scripts.

Re: vmstat on hpux 11i

Vmstat will report about your virtual memory status about SWAP performance . you can find disk transfer information using
#vmstat -d 5 5
To find the disk I/O information you can use sar & iostat
for example
#iostat -t 5 5

#sar -d 5 5

go through the man page for more details
