In RHEL 6.2, on dstat I get the following<br />
<br />
----total-cpu-usage---- -net/total- sda-<br />
usr sys idl wai hiq siq| recv &nbsp;send|util<br />
<br />
&nbsp;33 &nbsp;22 &nbsp;24 &nbsp; 0 &nbsp; 0 &nbsp;21| 462M &nbsp;478M| &nbsp; 0<br />
<br />
What is siq<br />
<br />
Since utilization is 76 (100 - idle), and user + system + siq = 76, what eexactly is siq ?<br />
<br />
Thanks
