Formatting output from iostat
So I use Cacti for monitoring IO statistics on my servers, now originally I couldnt monitor Multipath deviced servers as they have alot of /dev/sdxx and /dev/emcpowerxx, I have devised a method of trimming them down to just the actual devices but the issue is the output looks like so.

Code:
[root@daaorc010b svcsuprt]# iostat -xkd 30 2 `cat /etc/fstab | grep emcpower | awk ' { print $1 } ' | grep -v ^#`
