4.11. Displaying Extended GFS Information and Statistics

You can use the gfs_tool command to gather a variety of details about GFS. This section describes typical use of the gfs_tool command for displaying statistics, space usage, and extended status.

Usage

Displaying Statistics

gfs_tool counters MountPoint

The counters flag displays statistics about a file system. If -c is used, the gfs_tool command continues to run, displaying statistics once per second.

Displaying Space Usage

gfs_tool df MountPoint

The df flag displays a space-usage summary of a given file system. The information is more detailed than a standard df.

Displaying Extended Status

gfs_tool stat File

The stat flag displays extended status information about a file.

MountPoint

Specifies the file system to which the action applies.

File

The gfs_tool command provides additional action flags (options) not listed in this section. For more information about other gfs_tool flags, refer to the gfs_tool man page.
