If you want to watch what a disk is doing while you watch it, use iostat on the 
journal device.  If you want to see it's patterns at all times of the day, use 
sar.  Neither of these are ceph specific commands, just Linux tools that can 
watch your disk utilization, speeds, etc (among other things.  Both tools are 
well documented and easy to use.

Subject: [ceph-users] Ceph OSD journal utilization

Hi,

I am looking for a way to monitor the utilization of OSD journals – by 
observing the utilization pattern over time, I can determine if I have over 
provisioned them or not. Is there a way to do this?

When I googled on this topic, I saw one similar request about 4 years back.  I 
am wondering if there is some traction on this topic since then.

Thanks a lot.
