I am trying to determine how many physical reads and physical writes are happening on one of my database servers. I tried using the "sar - b" command, but the physical reads and writes always appears to be zero.

16:37:31       1    3768     100       6    1508     100       0       0
16:37:36       1    3812     100       4    1546     100       0       0
16:37:41       1    3923     100       2    1589     100       0       0
16:37:46       1    3751     100       7    1522     100       0       0


Environment:
Sun Solaris 9
Oracle 9.2.0.8.0


Any suggestions?

Thanks
Bill
