Script mode. There will be no user interface. This is most useful
when used together with the *--csv* and *-n* options.
+ --stream
+ Stream mode. All output is sent to stdout. This can be used from
+ shell scripts etc. There is no user interface.
+
+ --block-in-bytes
+ Show I/O statistics in Bytes. Default is shown in the number of
+ Requests.
+
--end-time time
The program will exit at the *time* given.
*s* or *d*
Change the delay between screen updates.
+ *B* Toggle Block I/O statistics so they are shown in either bytes or
+ requests.
+
*0* (number 0)
Show the normal list of domains display.
script *true|false*
Sets script mode.
+ stream *true|false*
+ Sets stream mode.
+
+ block-in-bytes *true|false*
+ Show block device statistics in bytes.
+
end-time *time*
Set the time at which the program exits. See above for the time
formats supported.
file override options specified on the command line. This is a bug and
this behaviour may change in the future.
+NOTES
+ Block I/O statistics
+ This I/O value is the amount of I/O since the previous iteration of
+ virt-top. To calculate speed of I/O, you should divide the number by
+ delay secs.
+
+ NETWORK RX BYTES AND PACKETS
+ Libvirt/virt-top has no way to know that a packet transmitted to a guest
+ was received (eg. if the guest is not listening). In the network RX
+ stats, virt-top reports the packets transmitted to the guest, on the
+ basis that the guest might receive them.
+
+ In particular this includes broadcast packets. Because of the way that
+ Linux bridges work, if the guest is connected to a bridge, it will
+ probably see a steady "background noise" of RX packets even when the
+ network interface is idle or down. These are caused by STP packets
+ generated by the bridge.
