I noticed in the graph of disk activity in GKrellM that there was some constant but intermittent activity on /dev/sda. Like this:

It suddenly occurred to me that with GKrellM one can display a graph per partition! So I activated graphs for each one in /dev/sda and found the culprit: /dev/sda7.
What do I have there? Well, nothing:
Telcontar:~ # mount | grep sda7 /dev/sda7 on /other/test_a1 type reiserfs (rw,relatime,lazytime, user_xattr,acl) Telcontar:~ #
Something like $ lsof /other/test_a1 when it is occurring? Or with the -/+r option to repeatedly probe for open files? Just a stab at it. -- David C. Rankin, J.D.,P.E.
