4.338. virt-top
An updated virt-top package that fixes three bugs and adds one enhancement is now available for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.
The virt-top utility displays statistics of virtualized domains and uses many of the same keys and command line options as the top utility.
Bug Fixes
- BZ#730208
- Prior to this update, the terminal was not properly restored if the --csv flag was given. This update modifies the code so that the terminal is now restored in the correct mode.
- BZ#665817
- The CSV output of virt-top contains only the headers for the first virtual machine. This update adds a processcsv.py script to virt-top so that the CSV output can now be split up into multiple files, each file containing full headers.
- BZ#680031
- When a libvirt error happens early during virt-top start-up, an obscure error message can be printed. With this update, the manual page contains added instructions for debugging libvirt errors that can occur during program initialization.
Enhancement
- BZ#680027
- With this update, the domain memory information is now displayed in the CSV output mode.
All virt-top users are advised to upgrade to this updated package, which fixes these bugs and adds this enhancement.
