atacontrol rebuild and iostat

[Putinas Piliponis]

Hmm, another notice...
I created array, right now it's rebuilding

atacontrol status ar0
ar0: ATA RAID1 subdisks: ad4 ad6 status: REBUILDING 3% completed

to check is it really doing what I expect I run
iostat ad4 ad6 1
and I see 0 transfer to devices:
pilkis at freebsd:/usr/src# iostat ad4 ad6 1
      tty             ad4              ad6             cpu

   0   60  0.00   0  0.00   0.00   0  0.00   1  0  1  2 96

to be sure what I didn't miss something I also run
iostat ar0
also no transfers 0.00MB/s

Why nothing ?
