Message-Id: <20080211131713.DC7435193B631@trashmail.net> Date: Mon, 11 Feb 2008 14:17:13 +0100 (CET) Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org List-ID: X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org My hard disk on my server is all the time readding and writing some files (I can see it with dstat). However I would like to know which files exactly are readden or written all the time. I know that each filesystem activity goes by the VFS (virtual filesystem). Is it possible to see all current open files in the VFS? For example with a command like: $ cat /proc/fs/vfs/open_files $ cat /proc/fs/vfs/reading_files $ cat /proc/fs/vfs/writing_files ? Is there a possibility? It should be on the VFS level to be independent of the used filesystem. -- Best regards -- E-Mail sent with anti-spam site TrashMail.net!
