Network IO you should be able to monitor by looking at the stats associated
with the vif to the domain in dom0 (at least for paravirt vifs). Block IO,
I'm not so sure of the mechanism.
Regarding swap space - all the swapping is done by the domain itself onto a
virtual block device you've provided it. If you give it a separate virtual
block device and configure it to use that for swap then monitoring that VBD
would give you an idea of swap activity - but not current swap use. If you
want to know domain-internal stats, such as swap use, the easiest approach is
to get the domain to stick some entries in XenStore to tell you.
The nearest to the tool you want would be "xm top" or "xenmon", however I
think these still don't monitor all the things you're interested in.
HTH,
Mark
