question about deriving statistics from sar

[Lucy Monahan_1]

Hi all,

Is there an easy way to derive from 'sar' output the same info that can be gotten from 'vmstat' and 'swapinfo'?

Many thanks!

Hi:

Not in HP's implementation of sar. On SVR4, sar -r and sar -g would essentially give the same information as vmstat. sar -w gives you a little of what you are looking for.

The perfect tool (though not free) is MeasureWare/Glance.

Thanks to both! This is a great forum. I just joined but have been reading many of the past posts to learn more.

Thanks again! :-)
