Hi.  Is there an equivalent of 'iostat' for Linux?

On other Unix systems - Solaris, HP-UX - one typically has
'vmstat' to measure some aspects of system performance and
'iostat' to list I/O statistics (like the I/O going to
disk and tape drives, per each drive).

Linux (2.4.x anyway) has vmstat, but does it have anything
like 'iostat', which can show me disk performance for each
disk?  Other than the aggregrate I/O counts that vmstat can
offer?

Thanks,


Brad
