To check system activity data

[Jayan Nair]

Hello,

Is there any command or tool to check hp ux system activity data for last 10 days.

Thanks & Regards
Jay

What sort of activity data are you thinking about? History of user actions, or system performance statistics?

For user logins, see "man last". A more detailed timeline of user actions would be available if you had enabled auditing before the time you're interested in.

For system performance statistics, there is sar and its data collector process. It isn't enabled automatically: like auditing, you must set it up and define what data is collected and how often.

An example of some sa1/sa2 commands that can go into a script and launch it from the crontab , with something similar to:

$SADIR/sa1 > $LOG 2>&1

$SADIR/sa2 -s 8:00 -e 18:01 -i 1200 -A >> $LOG 2>&1




man sa1 or man sar for more info
