Hi,

I have an AIX box where the customer wants to know if I can use hobbit to
track/graph
page in/out faults. vmstat appears to have this information in it's output.
So is there a way
to get hobbit to show this since it is collecting the vmstat information
anyway?

Thanks,
Jeff

Are those the "pi" and "po" fields in the vmstat output ? Then they
should already be collected by the vmstat handler, so you just need to
setup a graph definition to view them. You can use one of the existing
vmstat definitions in hobbitgraph.cfg, and just modify it to use the
"mem_pi" and "mem_po" fields in the vmstat.rrd file.
