im trying to collect some data.
Is there a way to get the free memory stats over the past few days from some file...
i looked into the sar log files but they dont have date stamps in them!
I'm trying to find a way to be able to get just the Average for the kbcached column along with the date that sar file was created as there is no date information inside the file, just time.
all my awk, grep attempts are not giving me what i need. Could someone please help?
Im trying to get my output to look something like:
Not exactly what you want/need, but I hope it helps.
well the result it gives me for that day is good. Shouldnt it be possible to run this command on all sa files in the directory?
Also any difference between the sa and the sar files?
