SAR report

Hello,

How do we check the SAR report from the log file? There are data in /var/sar directory.

Sanjeev,

Sysstat stores log files up to a month previous from the current day. To view a log file from a particular day, you simply pass the path to the file with the -f switch. So to view the CPU data for the 6th of the month:

sar -u -f /var/log/sa/sa06

Thanks a lot. It helps a lot. One of our server is going down in certain time at the time iowait is very high at the time. Do you thing problem with the disk ? Most of the data we are writing into SAN disk.

Thank in advance.
