Description
IOSTAT reports guest domain i/o activity only in the control domain. There's no way to show io status in the guest domains. 

To recreate:
1. created guest domain and assign disk devices
2. start i/o activity (diskomizer, dex, etc)
3. start IOSTAT in guest domain (iostat -xnDz 3)
 - iostat will not show any i/o activity from the guest domain
 - iostat does report i/o activity in the control domain (domain0)
Work Around
iostat can be run on the service domain to measure the actual writes to the "disk" backing the virtual device.
