  • What is your OS and version?
  • Are you using the right locale?
  • If a POSIX awk is using the right locale and length is not working correctly, then it is broken. It should report the number of characters, not the number of bytes. Reasonably recent GNU awk (3.1.8) reports it correctly..

NAME
nfsiostat - Emulate iostat for NFS mount points using /proc/self/mountstats SYNOPSIS
nfsiostat [[<interval>] [<count>]] [<options>][<mount_point>] DESCRIPTION
The nfsiostat command displays NFS client per-mount statisitics. <interval> specifies the amount of time in seconds between each report. The first report contains statistics for the time since each file sys- tem was mounted. Each subsequent report contains statistics collected during the interval since the previous report. <count> If the <count> parameter is specified, the value of <count> determines the number of reports generated at <interval> seconds apart. if the interval parameter is specified without the <count> parameter, the command generates reports continuously. <options> Define below <mount_point> If one or more <mount point> names are specified, statistics for only these mount points will be displayed. Otherwise, all NFS mount points on the client are listed. OPTIONS
-a or --attr displays statistics related to the attribute cache -d or --dir displays statistics related to directory operations -h or --help shows help message and exit -l LIST or --list=LIST only print stats for first LIST mount points -p or --page displays statistics related to the page cache -s or --sort Sort NFS mount points by ops/second --version show program's version number and exit FILES
