+.TH SA2 8 "AUGUST 2023" Linux "Linux User's Manual" -*- nroff -*-
+.SH NAME
+sa2 \- Create a report from the current standard system activity daily data file.
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B /usr/lib/sa/sa2
+
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.RB "The " "sa2 " "command is a shell procedure variant of the " "sar"
+command which writes a daily report in the
+.IR "sarDD " "or the " "sarYYYYMMDD " "file, where"
+.IR "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
+.I /var/log/sa
+directory. The
+.B 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
+.B HISTORY
+environment variable. Read the
+.BR "sysstat" "(5) manual page for details."
+.PP
+.RB "The " "sa2 " "command accepts most of the flags and parameters of the " "sar " "command."
+.PP
+.RB "The " "sa2 " "command is designed to be started automatically by the " "cron " "command."
+
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.RB "To run the " "sa2"
+command daily, place the following entry in your root crontab file:
+
+.B 5 19 * * 1\-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa2 \-A
+
+This will generate by default a daily report called
+.IR "sarDD " "in the"
+.I /var/log/sa
+directory, where the
+.IR "DD " "parameter is a number representing the day of the month."
+
+.SH FILES
+.I /var/log/sa/sarDD
+.br
+.I /var/log/sa/sarYYYYMMDD
+.RS
+The standard system activity daily report files and their default location.
+.IR "YYYY " "stands for the current year, " "MM " "for the current month and " "DD " "for the current day."
