For intensive live net data, look at WireShark for linux.<br>

If that's what you're looking for, there are several (free)
programs you could run from the command line in a separate
window/screen while your program is running that give you all
you're asking about. Sort of an equivalent to Winblows "System
Explorer." What flavor or Linux are you using? <br>

what and where your program is performing io access.</div>

<div>No, iostat will normally just dump to the
terminal window, but I'd like to pipe it's output
to a file so I can parse it later. <br>
<br>
</div>
My end goal here is to be able to generate a log of
iostat output while I run this program, I'm trying
to determine exactly how hard this program is
hitting my harddrive and at what points during it's
run does it access the drive the most frequently. <br>
<br>
</div>
I've done something similar in bash before, but it is
rather clunky. <br>
<br>
</div>
I'll take a look at exec and see if I can use it. <br>

If you need to manipulate the results,
consider using Perl, <br>
or if C or C++,<br>
in your 'exec' call, pipe the output to a
file, then just read that file into your
program.<br>
Ain't UNIX great?

<div>I'd like to take some metrics with
iostat while I have a specific program
running, is there a way to wrap iostat
around another program (it is called
from the command line) so that iostat
ends when the program finishes
running? <br>
<br>
</div>
I know I can do it with a bash script,
but I'm hoping for a more elegant
solution. <br>
