.Nm zilstat
.Nd report ZFS Intent Log statistics
.Sh SYNOPSIS
.Nm
.Op Fl v
.Op Fl a Ns | Ns Fl p Ar pool Ns | Ns Fl d Ar dataset Ns Op , Ns Ar dataset Ns …
.Op Fl f Ar field Ns Op , Ns Ar field Ns …
.Op Fl s Ar separator
.Op Fl i Ar interval
.
.Sh DESCRIPTION
.Nm
prints statistics about the ZFS Intent Log (ZIL).
The ZIL is used to log synchronous write operations and is replayed on
pool import if the system crashes before those writes are committed to
the main pool.
.Pp
By default, global ZIL statistics are displayed.
When a pool or dataset is specified, per-dataset statistics are shown
instead.
.Pp
If an
.Ar interval
is specified, the output is repeated every
.Ar interval
seconds showing the change in values since the previous sample.
Without an interval, cumulative values are displayed.
.Pp
