Monitoring Xen Performance with XenMon
For each domain three sets of data are provided. The first row (the grammatically dubious ''Gotten'') for each domain is the amount of time the domain as spent executing. The ''Blocked'' row shows statistics for idle time. Finally, the ''Waited'' row indicates the amount of time the domain has been in a wait state. For each category the amount of time spent in the particular mode and the time as a percentage of overall time during the corresponding period (i.e 1 or 10 seconds) is displayed. The final value depends on the category. For Gotten this represents processor time, for Blocked the average blocked time and for Wait the average waiting time.
 
By default XenMon displays information for CPU 0. If the system has more than one physical CPU then the '''p''' and '''n''' keys can be used to page through the data for each CPU on the system.
When XenMon is exited (using the '''q''' key) a summary of data collected during the monitoring session is displayed:
