Hi All,

I need to generate some data about memory, CPU and disk access usage. Can anyone give me some help on how to set this up?

Thanks
RAJIM

Put entries in cron for sa1 and sa2
#0 * * * 1-5 /usr/lbin/sa/sa1 600 6
#59 23 * * 1-5 /usr/lbin/sa/sa2 -A -i 600
sa1 gathers binary stats every hour
sa2 converts to reports.
check out man pages for sa1 for additional details.

RAJIM:

You can use Glance...

To generate reports you can check the man pages of Glance (#man glance) to get report into a file.

Hi Rajim,

This is a script which I had written to collect stats data for sar, glance, iostat, netstat and ftp the stats files to a server.
This lacks a lot of validity checks asuuming the required directories, user etc are created.
You may choose to use this script with the required functions only and may add the validity checks if required.
Please feel free for any comments/suggestions as well

Regards,
Ninad
