NAME

       pcp-dmcache, pcp-lvmcache - report on logical storage device caches

SYNOPSIS

       pcp [pcp options] dmcache [-i/--iops] [-R/--repeat N] [device ...]

DESCRIPTION

       pcp-dmcache  reports  on  the  activity  of  any  configured  Device  Mapper Cache targets.  The reported
       information includes device IOPs, cache and metadata device utilization, as well as hit  and  miss  rates
       and ratios for both reads and writes for each cache device.

       pcp-lvmcache (Logical Volume Manager cache) is an exact synonym for pcp-dmcache (Device Mapper cache).

       When   invoked   via   the  pcp(1)  command,  the  -h/--host,  -a/--archive,  -O/--origin,  -s/--samples,
       -t/--interval, -Z/--timezone and several other pcp options become indirectly available.

       By default, pcp-dmcache reports on all available cache target devices (one line each,  per  sample),  but
       this can be restricted to specific devices on the command line.

OPTIONS

       Additional options are available for changing the output displayed by pcp-dmcache.

       -i/--iops displays total read and write operations instead of the default cache hit ratio.

       -R/--repeat  changes  the  frequency  at  which the column heading is displayed.  By default, a header is
       displayed after every tenth sample.
