Hi - which arguments to iostat are you using? Thanks iostat -x sda4 -d 5 and for every 'screen update' it leaks one /proc/stat handle until it's runs out in about 85mins Hi - I'm testing sysstat 5.0.5 for inclusion in the next update. I managed to run iostat -x sda2 -d 1 overnight without running out of file handles using this version. If you are so inclined, check out the unsupported builds of this version at http://people.redhat.com/ccb/sysstat and let me know what you think. lsof | grep iostat iostat 1719 root cwd DIR 8,2 4096 2 / iostat 1719 root rtd DIR 8,2 4096 2 / iostat 1719 root txt REG 8,2 20300 918645 /usr/bin/iostat iostat 1719 root mem REG 8,2 106888 523272 /lib/ld-2.3.2.so iostat 1719 root mem REG 8,2 1568876 1308187 /lib/tls/libc-2.3.2.so iostat 1719 root mem REG 8,2 32148976 703170 /usr/lib/locale/locale-archive iostat 1719 root 0u CHR 136,4 6 /dev/pts/4 iostat 1719 root 1u CHR 136,4 6 /dev/pts/4 iostat 1719 root 2u CHR 136,4 6 /dev/pts/4 After 10 or so minutes, so it's NOT leaking file handles anymore command again 'iostat -x sda4 -d 5' Will you close this with proper status? *** Bug 133466 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. *** Fixed by errata candidate RHBA-2004:506 An errata has been issued which should help the problem described in this bug report.
