tool to sar output to present by day in graph (sar captured every 5 mins)

[Doug O'Leary]

Hey;

A long time ago, in fact, more than 10 years ago, I used gnuplot (http://hpux.connect.org.uk/hppd/hpux/Development/Tools/gnuplot-4.2.5/) to graph sar data. There was some other application that I had to use to convert the plots to jpgs but I can't remember that one off the top of my head.

Gnuplot's fairly easy for basic graphs. You can apparently do some things with it that very quickly leave my sphere of limited mathmatic understanding...

HTH;

dear Sir,
cat /var/adm/sa/sar4.out| grep -v "Average" >> /tmp/sar.out
when i use this command, it will average out the entire day command or use algortithm find the average throughout the day?

how to find the max throughout the day of sar output capturing?
hope to hear from you.thank you

dear Sir,
how to get the maximum from the sar output?

hope to hear from you. i tried to use the same command just change the
cat /var/adm/sa/sartest.out |grep -i "maximum" >> /tmp/sar.out, but nothing was captured in /tmp/sar.out. the output was 0 in size.
would really appreciate your advice. many thanks in advance

Shalom to you apple,

When trying to compose your grep statement, look at the raw output. The word maximum either does not appear or may have capitalization differences, making it impossible for you to accomplish your goal.
