        SYNTAX

        sadp [ -th ] [ -d device[-drive] ] s [ n ]


        DESCRIPTION

        sadp reports disk access location and seek distance, in tabular
        or histogram form.  It samples disk activity once every second
        during an interval of s seconds.  This is done repeatedly if n is
        specified.  Cylinder usage and disk distance are recorded in
        units of 8 cylinders.

        Valid values of device are hdsk for integral disk and fdsk for
        integral floppy.  Drive specifies the disk drives and it may be:

             a drive number in the range supported by device,

             two numbers separated by a minus (indicating an inclusive
             range),
        or
             a list of drive numbers separated by commas.

        Up to 8 disk drives may be reported.  The -d option may be
        omitted, if only one device is present.

        The -t flag causes the data to be reported in tabular form.  The
        -h flag produces a histogram on the printer of the data.  Default
        is -t.


        EXAMPLE

        The command:

             sadp -d hdsk-0 900 4

        will generate 4 tabular reports, each describing cylinder usage
        and seek distance of hdsk disk drive 0 during a 15-minute
        interval.
