NAME

   sa2  -  Create a report from the current standard system activity daily
   data file.

SYNOPSIS

   /usr/lib/sysstat/sa2

DESCRIPTION

   The sa2 command is a shell procedure variant of the sar  command  which
   writes  a daily report in the sarDD or the sarYYYYMMDD file, where YYYY
   stands for the current year, MM for the current month and  DD  for  the
   current  day.   By  default the report is saved in the /var/log/sysstat
   directory.  The sa2 command will also remove reports more than one week
   old  by  default.   You  can  however  keep  reports for a longer (or a
   shorter) period by setting the HISTORY environment variable.  Read  the
   sysstat(5) manual page for details.

   The  sa2  command  accepts  most of the flags and parameters of the sar
   command.

   The sa2 command is designed to be started  automatically  by  the  cron
   command.

EXAMPLES

   To  run  the  sa2 command daily, place the following entry in your root
   crontab file:

   5 19 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sysstat/sa2 -A &

   This will generate by default  a  daily  report  called  sarDD  in  the
   /var/log/sysstat   directory,  where  the  DD  parameter  is  a  number
   representing the day of the month.

   Debian note
   The Debian sysstat package has already placed such  an  entry  in  your
   system        crontab.         Please        refer        to        the
   /usr/share/doc/sysstat/README.Debian file for details.

FILES

   /var/log/sysstat/sarDD
   /var/log/sysstat/sarYYYYMMDD
          The standard  system  activity  daily  report  files  and  their
          default  location.  YYYY stands for the current year, MM for the
          current month and DD for the current day.
