I'm writing a customized monitoring panel for Ubuntu server.
At this step i need to get real time hard disk read and write rate then put it into a file as a log file.
I used tools like Hdparm,Iotop but did not worked. I want result into a file.
I want some result like :
10Kb read – 2kb write – 2014-2-13 16:40:03
So i can run it as Crontab and monitor every I/O rate

You can get this information from
/proc
. See how the munindisk_*
plugins do it.
