I received one reply from my question to include rze drives on an iostat
display. As was illustrate, I missed typed and the message should have
read re drives. It seems from the response that it can be done. All you
have to do is leave off the last letter iostat re0 re1. If you include
the last letter it ignores the whole command. The recommendation to use
monitor was also made, but the trouble with monitor is that some of the
disk info is wrong under 3.2g.
I included the one response I received.
