Hi, I need to get some statistics data/graphs for a LTSP server. For ethernet I will use ethereal, since it provides very good statistics. I would like to know if there is a program that could monitor server cpu/proc/disk load over time (simultaneously with ethereal) and provide statistics (numerical data, graphs). I already have gkrellm, but it just shows current data. Ksysguard offers no statistics data. Thanks

I tried sar, but it gives "Cannot open /var/log/sa/sa.2004_06_11: No such file or directory" there is sa directory but it is empty.

Try adding the following into roots crontab: ###################### # collection for sar # ###################### 0 5-21 * * 1-6 /usr/lib/sa/sa1 1200 3 & 5 21 * * 1-6 /usr/lib/sa/sa2 -A & This will monitor stats from 5:00am to 9:00pm. -- Ken Schneider unix user since 1989 linux user since 1994 SuSE user since 1998 (5.2)

This will monitor stats from 5:00am to 9:00pm.
Please note that on 9.1 crontab entries are already provided by sysstat rpm. They go into /etc/sysstat.cron, which is symlinked from /etc/cron.d directory. Regards, -Kastus

You have to activate the service via for instance YaST -> System -> Runlevel Editor -> Expert Mode (enable sysstat) or via "chkconfig sysstat on". I don't remember which one I used, both methods should work. Also note that sysstat and systat are different services. You don't have to modify any crontab entries. -- A.M.
