ENVIRONMENTThe cifsiostat command takes into account the following environment variables:S_COLORSWhen this variable is set, display statistics in color on the terminal. Possible values for this variable are never, alwaysor auto (the latter is the default).Please note that the color (being red, yellow, or some other color) used to display a value is not indicative of any kind ofissue simply because of the color. It only indicates different ranges of values.S_COLORS_SGRSpecify the colors and other attributes used to display statistics on the terminal. Its value is a colon-separated list ofcapabilities that defaults to I=32;22:N=34;1:Z=34;22. Supported capabilities are:I= SGR substring for filesystem names.N= SGR substring for non-zero statistics values.Z= SGR substring for zero values.S_TIME_FORMATIf this variable exists and its value is ISO then the current locale will be ignored when printing the date in the reportheader. The cifsiostat command will use the ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD) instead. The timestamp displayed with option -t willalso be compliant with ISO 8601 format.BUG/proc filesystem must be mounted for cifsiostat to work.FILE/proc/fs/cifs/Stats contains CIFS statistics.AUTHORSWritten by Ivana Varekova (varekova <at> redhat.com)Maintained by Sebastien Godard (sysstat <at> orange.fr)
