Package: dstat Version: 0.6.7-1On a currently patched Lenny system, the module "topbio" of dstat sometimes terminates with the following error message: Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 2041, in <module> main() File "/usr/bin/dstat", line 1986, in main o.extract() File "/usr/share/dstat/dstat_topbio.py", line 65, in extract st = os.stat("/proc/%s" % pid) OSError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '/proc/7250' It looks like the module is sometimes unable to handle the dynamic of the process structures in die /proc file system. The machine is a quite heavy loaded webserver where httpd processes come and go. The command line was: dstat -alM topcpu,topio,topbio
Did you try the version from subversion ? The latest version is 0.6.9, and we are preparing 0.6.10. I remember this issue being fixed quite some time ago.
