Here's what is in sa1:

# more /usr/lbin/sa/sa1
#! /usr/bin/sh
# sa1.sh

DATE=`date +%d`
ENDIR=/usr/lbin/sa
DFILE=/var/adm/sa/sa$DATE
cd $ENDIR
if [ $# = 0 ]
then
exec $ENDIR/sadc 1 1 $DFILE
else
exec $ENDIR/sadc $* $DFILE
fi



But, you need to setup sar from root's cron - something like:

# SAR
0 * * * 0,6 /usr/lib/sa/sa1
0 5-19 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa1 1200 3
0 20-4 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa1
5 19 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa2 -s 5:00 -e 19:00 -i 3600 -A
