Description Christian Horn 2021-11-08 01:40:24 UTC 
Description of problem:
pcp-dstat should provide "--top-*" options like --top-cpu, as stand alone 'dstat' provides

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
pcp 5.3 does not provide this

How reproducible:
If implemented, for example "pcp dstat --top-cpu" would provide
comparable output to "dstat --top-cpu" with dstat.
Comment 1 Nathan Scott 2022-03-01 22:08:20 UTC 
Minimal feature work is now being scheduled for PCP in RHEL 8 - we plan on adding this functionality in the 9.2 release with PCP v6.
