Mavrick, the simplest way would be to use the sar command, you could just specify the interval and the time that you want it to run and let it run for a week to collect data for you, at the end it should give you an average.

Regards,

Jaime.

The best tool to get the historical data is perfview.

Use mwa data:

I do this nightly:

55 23 * * 1-5 /opt/perf/bin/extract -xp -r /home/gwild/zgbltemplate -g -b today 7:00 -e today 18:00 -f stdout | /bin/mailx -s 'System performance report' sysadm >/dev/null 2>&1

# cat /home/gwild/zgbltemplate
REPORT "MWA Export on !SYSTEM_ID"
FORMAT ASCII
HEADINGS ON
SEPARATOR="|"
SUMMARY=60
MISSING=0
DATA TYPE GLOBAL
YEAR
DATE
TIME
GBL_CPU_TOTAL_UTIL
GBL_CPU_SYS_MODE_UTIL
GBL_CPU_USER_MODE_UTIL
GBL_CPU_SYSCALL_UTIL
GBL_CPU_INTERRUPT_UTIL
GBL_PRI_QUEUE
GBL_CPU_CSWITCH_UTIL
GBL_SWAP_SPACE_UTIL
GBL_DISK_UTIL_PEAK
GBL_DISK_SUBSYSTEM_QUEUE

GBL_MEM_PAGEOUT_RATE
GBL_MEM_SWAPOUT_RATE
GBL_MEM_QUEUE
GBL_NET_PACKET_RATE
GBL_NET_OUTQUEUE
GBL_NETWORK_SUBSYSTEM_QUEUE

Modify that file for say just CPU, then gather a weeks data

/opt/perf/bin/extract -xp -r /home/gwild/zgbltemplate -g -b 07/16/2007 00:00 -e 07/22/2007 23:59 -f stdout
