    NAME

    sar - Collect, report, or save system activity information.
     
    

    SYNOPSIS

    sar [ -A ] [ -b ] [ -B ] [ -c ] [ -d ] [ -i interval ] [ -p ] [ -q ] [ -r ] [ -R ] [ -t ] [ -u ] [ -v ] [ -V ] [ -w ] [ -W ] [ -y ] [ -n { DEV | EDEV | NFS | NFSD | SOCK | ALL } ] [ -x { pid | SELF | ALL } ] [ -X { pid | SELF | ALL } ] [ -I { irq | SUM | ALL | XALL } ] [ -P { cpu | ALL } ] [ -o [ filename ] | -f [ filename ] ] [ -s [ hh:mm:ss ] ] [ -e [ hh:mm:ss ] ] [ interval [ count ] ]  

    DESCRIPTION

    The sar command writes to standard output the contents of selected cumulative activity counters in the operating system. The accounting system, based on the values in the count and interval parameters, writes information the specified number of times spaced at the specified intervals in seconds. If the interval parameter is set to zero, the sar command displays the average statistics for the time since the system was started. The default value for the count parameter is 1. If its value is set to zero, then reports are generated continuously. The collected data can also be saved in the file specified by the -o filename flag, in addition to being displayed onto the screen. If filename is omitted, sar uses the standard system activity daily data file, the /var/log/sa/sadd file, where the dd parameter indicates the current day. By default all the data available from the kernel are saved in the data file. Exceptions are interrupts and disks data, for which the relevant options must be explicitly passed to sar (or to its backend sadc ) when the data file is created (see options below).

    The sar command extracts and writes to standard output records previously saved in a file. This file can be either the one specified by the -f flag or, by default, the standard system activity daily data file.

    Without the -P flag, the sar command reports system-wide (global among all processors) statistics, which are calculated as averages for values expressed as percentages, and as sums otherwise. If the -P flag is given, the sar command reports activity which relates to the specified processor or processors. If -P ALL is given, the sar command reports statistics for each individual processor and global statistics among all processors.

    You can select information about specific system activities using flags. Not specifying any flags selects only CPU activity. Specifying the -A flag is equivalent to specifying -bBcdqrRuvwWy -I SUM -I XALL -n ALL -P ALL.

    The default version of the sar command (CPU utilization report) might be one of the first facilities the user runs to begin system activity investigation, because it monitors major system resources. If CPU utilization is near 100 percent (user + nice + system), the workload sampled is CPU-bound.

    If multiple samples and multiple reports are desired, it is convenient to specify an output file for the sar command. Run the sar command as a background process. The syntax for this is:

    sar -o datafile interval count >/dev/null 2>&1 &

    All data is captured in binary form and saved to a file (datafile). The data can then be selectively displayed with the sar command using the -f option. Set the interval and count parameters to select count records at interval second intervals. If the count parameter is not set, all the records saved in the file will be selected. Collection of data in this manner is useful to characterize system usage over a period of time and determine peak usage hours.

    Note:   The
    sar command only reports on local activities.

     

    OPTIONS

    -A
    This is equivalent to specifying -bBcdqrRuvwWy -I SUM -I XALL -n ALL -P ALL.
    -b
    Report I/O and transfer rate statistics. The following values are displayed:

    tps

    Total number of transfers per second that were issued to physical devices. A transfer is an I/O request to a physical device. Multiple logical requests can be combined into a single I/O request to the device. A transfer is of indeterminate size.

    rtps

    Total number of read requests per second issued to physical devices.

    wtps

    Total number of write requests per second issued to physical devices.

    bread/s

    Total amount of data read from the devices in blocks per second. Blocks are equivalent to sectors with 2.4 kernels and newer and therefore have a size of 512 bytes. With older kernels, a block is of indeterminate size.

    bwrtn/s

    Total amount of data written to devices in blocks per second.
    -B
    Report paging statistics. The following values are displayed:

    pgpgin/s

    Total number of kilobytes the system paged in from disk per second. Note: With old kernels (2.2.x) this value is a number of blocks per second (and not kilobytes).

    pgpgout/s

    Total number of kilobytes the system paged out to disk per second. Note: With old kernels (2.2.x) this value is a number of blocks per second (and not kilobytes).

    fault/s

    Number of page faults (major + minor) made by the system per second (post 2.5 kernels only). This is not a count of page faults that generate I/O, because some page faults can be resolved without I/O.

    majflt/s

    Number of major faults the system has made per second, those which have required loading a memory page from disk (post 2.5 kernels only).
    -c
    Report process creation activity.

    proc/s

    Total number of processes created per second.
    -d
    Report activity for each block device (kernels 2.4 and newer only). When data is displayed, the device specification dev m-n is generally used ( DEV column). m is the major number of the device. With recent kernels (post 2.5), n is the minor number of the device, but is only a sequence number with pre 2.5 kernels. Device names may also be pretty-printed if option -p is used (see below). Values for fields avgqu-sz, await, svctm and %util may be unavailable and displayed as 0.00 with some 2.4 kernels.

    tps

    Indicate the number of transfers per second that were issued to the device. Multiple logical requests can be combined into a single I/O request to the device. A transfer is of indeterminate size.

    rd_sec/s

    Number of sectors read from the device. The size of a sector is 512 bytes.

    wr_sec/s

    Number of sectors written to the device. The size of a sector is 512 bytes.

    avgrq-sz

    The average size (in sectors) of the requests that were issued to the device.

    avgqu-sz

    The average queue length of the requests that were issued to the device.

    await

    The average time (in milliseconds) for I/O requests issued to the device to be served. This includes the time spent by the requests in queue and the time spent servicing them.

    svctm

    The average service time (in milliseconds) for I/O requests that were issued to the device.

    %util

    Percentage of CPU time during which I/O requests were issued to the device (bandwidth utilization for the device). Device saturation occurs when this value is close to 100%.
    -e [ hh:mm:ss ]
    Set the ending time of the report. The default ending time is 18:00:00. Hours must be given in 24-hour format. This option can be used only when data are read from or written to a file (options -f or -o ).
    -f [ filename ]
    Extract records from filename (created by the -o filename flag). The default value of the filename parameter is the current daily data file, the /var/log/sa/sadd file. The -f option is exclusive of the -o option.
    -i interval
    Select data records at seconds as close as possible to the number specified by the interval parameter.
    -I { irq | SUM | ALL | XALL }
    Report statistics for a given interrupt. irq is the interrupt number. Specifying multiple -I irq parameters on the command line will look at multiple independent interrupts. The SUM keyword indicates that the total number of interrupts received per second is to be displayed. The ALL keyword indicates that statistics from the first 16 interrupts are to be reported, whereas the XALL keyword indicates that statistics from all interrupts, including potential APIC interrupt sources, are to be reported.

    -o [ filename ]
    Save the readings in the file in binary form. Each reading is in a separate record. The default value of the filename parameter is the current daily data file, the /var/log/sa/sadd file. The -o option is exclusive of the -f option.
    -P { cpu | ALL }
    Report per-processor statistics for the specified processor or processors. Specifying the ALL keyword reports statistics for each individual processor, and globally for all processors. Of the flags which specify the statistics to be reported, only the -u and -I SUM flags are meaningful with the -P flag. Note that processor 0 is the first processor.
    -p
    Pretty-print device names. Use this option in conjunction with option -d. By default names are printed as dev m-n where m and n are the major and minor numbers for the device. Use of this option displays the names of the devices as they (should) appear in /dev. Name mappings are controlled by /etc/sysconfig/sysstat.ioconf.
    -q
    Report queue length and load averages. The following values are displayed:

    Amount of used swap space in kilobytes.

    %swpused

    Percentage of used swap space.

    kbswpcad

    Amount of cached swap memory in kilobytes. This is memory that once was swapped out, is swapped back in but still also is in the swap area (if memory is needed it doesn't need to be swapped out again because it is already in the swap area. This saves I/O).
    -R
    Report memory statistics. The following values are displayed:

    frmpg/s

    Number of memory pages freed by the system per second. A negative value represents a number of pages allocated by the system. Note that a page has a size of 4 kB or 8 kB according to the machine architecture.

    bufpg/s

    Number of additional memory pages used as buffers by the system per second. A negative value means fewer pages used as buffers by the system.

    campg/s

    Number of additional memory pages cached by the system per second. A negative value means fewer pages in the cache.
    -s [ hh:mm:ss ]
    Set the starting time of the data, causing the sar command to extract records time-tagged at, or following, the time specified. The default starting time is 08:00. Hours must be given in 24-hour format. This option can be used only when data are read from a file (option -f ).
    -t
    When reading data from a daily data file, indicate that sar should display the timestamps in the original locale time of the data file creator. Without this option, the sar command displays the timestamps in the user's locale time.
    -u
    Report CPU utilization. The following values are displayed:

    %user

    Percentage of CPU utilization that occurred while executing at the user level (application).

    %nice

    Percentage of CPU utilization that occurred while executing at the user level with nice priority.

    %system

    Percentage of CPU utilization that occurred while executing at the system level (kernel).

    %iowait

    Percentage of time that the CPU or CPUs were idle during which the system had an outstanding disk I/O request.

    %steal

    Show the percentage of time spent in involuntary wait by the virtual CPU or CPUs while the hypervisor was servicing another virtual processor.

    %idle

    Percentage of time that the CPU or CPUs were idle and the system did not have an outstanding disk I/O request. Note: In virtualized hardware environment, this also includes the time spent in involuntary wait by the virtual CPU or CPUs while the hypervisor was servicing another virtual processor.
    -v

    %dquot-sz

    Percentage of allocated disk quota entries with regard to the maximum number of cached disk quota entries that can be allocated.

    rtsig-sz

    -V
    Print version number then exit.
    -w
    Report system switching activity.

    cswch/s

    Total number of context switches per second.
    -W
    Report swapping statistics. The following values are displayed:

    pswpin/s

    Total number of swap pages the system brought in per second.

    pswpout/s

    Total number of swap pages the system brought out per second.
    -x { pid | SELF | ALL }
    Report statistics for a given process. pid is the process identification number. The SELF keyword indicates that statistics are to be reported for the sar process itself, whereas the ALL keyword indicates that statistics are to be reported for all the system processes. All these statistics cannot be saved to a file. So this option will be ignored whenever -o option is used. Specifying multiple -x pid parameters on the command line will look at multiple independent processes. At the present time, no more than 256 processes can be monitored simultaneously.

    The following values are displayed:

    minflt/s

    Total number of minor faults the process has made per second, those which have not required loading a memory page from disk.

    majflt/s

    Total number of major faults the process has made per second, those which have required loading a memory page from disk.

    %user

    Percentage of CPU used by the process while executing at the user level (application), with or without nice priority.

    %system

    Percentage of CPU used by the process while executing at the system level (kernel).

    nswap/s

    Number of pages from the process address space the system has swapped out per second. This value is always zero with post 2.5 kernels.

    CPU

    Processor number to which the process is attached.
    -X { pid | SELF | ALL }
    Report statistics for the child processes of the process whose PID is pid . The SELF keyword indicates that statistics are to be reported for the child processes of the sar process itself, whereas the ALL keyword indicates that statistics are to be reported for all the child processes of all the system processes. All these statistics cannot be saved to a file. So this option will be ignored whenever -o option is used. Specifying multiple -X pid parameters on the command line will look at multiple independent processes. At the present time, no more than 256 processes can be monitored simultaneously. The following values are displayed:

    cminflt/s

    Total number of minor faults the child processes have made per second, those which have not required loading a memory page from disk.

    cmajflt/s

    Total number of major faults the child processes have made per second, those which have required loading a memory page from disk.

    %cuser

    Percentage of CPU used by the child processes while executing at the user level (application), with or without nice priority.

    %csystem

    Percentage of CPU used by the child processes while executing at the system level (kernel).

    cnswap/s

    Number of pages from the child processes address spaces the system has swapped out per second. This value is always zero with post 2.5 kernels.
    -y
    Report TTY device activity. The following values are displayed:

    rcvin/s

    Number of receive interrupts per second for current serial line. Serial line number is given in the TTY column.

    Number of parity errors per second for current serial line.

    brk/s

    Number of breaks per second for current serial line.

    ovrun/s

    Number of overrun errors per second for current serial line.

    Note that with recent 2.6 kernels, these statistics can be retrieved only by root.

     

    ENVIRONMENT

    The sar command takes into account the following environment variables:

    S_TIME_FORMAT
    If this variable exists and its value is ISO then the current locale will be ignored when printing the date in the report header. The sar command will use the ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD) instead.

    S_TIME_DEF_TIME
    If this variable exists and its value is UTC then sar will save its data in UTC time (data will still be displayed in local time). sar will also use UTC time instead of local time to determine the current daily data file located in the /var/log/sa directory.
     

    EXAMPLES

    sar -u 2 5
    Report CPU utilization for each 2 seconds. 5 lines are displayed.

    sar -I 14 -o int14.file 2 10

    Report statistics on IRQ 14 for each 2 seconds. 10 lines are displayed. Data are stored in a file called int14.file.

    sar -r -n DEV -f /var/log/sa/sa16

    Display memory, swap space and network statistics saved in daily data file 'sa16'.

    sar -A

    Display all the statistics saved in current daily data file.
     

    BUGS

    /proc filesystem must be mounted for the sar command to work.

    All the statistics are not necessarily available, depending on the kernel version used.  

    FILES

    /var/log/sa/sadd
    Indicate the daily data file, where the dd parameter is a number representing the day of the month.

    /proc contains various files with system statistics.
