+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.RB "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
+.IR "count " "and " "interval"
+parameters, writes information the specified number of times spaced
+at the specified intervals in seconds.
+If the
+.IR "interval " "parameter is set to zero, the"
+.B sar
+command displays the average statistics for the time
+since the system was started. If the
+.IR "interval " "parameter is specified without the " "count"
+parameter, then reports are generated continuously.
+The collected data can also
+be saved in the file specified by the
+.BI "\-o " "filename"
+flag, in addition to being displayed onto the screen. If
+.IR "filename " "is omitted,"
+.B sar
+uses the standard system activity daily data file (see below).
+By default all the data available from the kernel are saved in the
+data file.
+.PP
+.RB "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
+.B \-f
+flag or, by default, the standard system activity daily data file.
+It is also possible to enter
+.BR "\-1" ", " "\-2 " "etc. as an argument to " "sar"
+to display data of that days ago. For example,
+.BR "\-1 " "will point at the standard system activity file of yesterday."
+.PP
+Standard system activity daily data files are named
+.IR "saDD " "or " "saYYYYMMDD" ", where"
+.IR "YYYY " "stands for the current year, " "MM " "for the current month and " "DD"
+for the current day. They are the default files used by
+.B sar
+only when no filename has been explicitly specified.
+When used to write data to files (with its option
+.BR "\-o" "), " "sar"
+will use
+.I saYYYYMMDD
+.RB "if option " "\-D"
+has also been specified, else it will use
+.IR "saDD" "."
+When used to display the records previously saved in a file,
+.B sar
+will look for the most recent of
+.IR "saDD " "and " "saYYYYMMDD" ", and use it."
+.PP
+Standard system activity daily data files are located in the
+.I /var/log/sa
+directory by default. Yet it is possible to specify an alternate
+location for them: If a directory (instead of a plain file) is used
+with options
+.BR "\-f " "or " "\-o"
+then it will be considered as the directory containing the data files.
+.PP
+.RB "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
+.BR "\-P " "flag is given, the " "sar"
+command reports activity which relates to the specified processor or
+processors. If
+.BR "\-P ALL " "is given, the " "sar"
+command reports statistics for each individual processor and global
+statistics among all processors. Offline processors are not displayed.
+.PP
+You can select information about specific system activities using
+flags. Not specifying any flags selects only CPU activity.
+Specifying the
+.B \-A
+flag selects all possible activities.
+.PP
+The default version of the
+.B 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
+.BR "sar " "command. Run the " "sar"
+command as a background process. The syntax for this is:
+
+.BI "sar \-o " "datafile interval count " ">/dev/null 2>&1 &"
+
+All data are captured in binary form and saved to a file
+.RI "(" "datafile" ")."
+The data can then be selectively displayed with the
+.BR "sar " "command using the " "\-f " "option. Set the"
+.IR "interval " "and " "count " "parameters to select " "count " "records at " "interval"
+.RI "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.
+.PP
+.RB "Note: The " "sar"
+command only reports on local activities.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+.TP
+.B \-A
+This is equivalent to specifying
+.BR "\-bBdFHISvwWy \-m ALL \-n ALL \-q ALL \-r ALL \-u ALL" "."

+unless these options are explicitly set on the command line.

+(bandwidth utilization for the device). Device saturation occurs when this
+value is close to 100% for devices serving requests serially. But for

+.IP kbmemfree
+Amount of free memory available in kilobytes.
+.IP kbavail
+Estimate of how much memory in kilobytes is available for starting new
+applications, without swapping.
+The estimate takes into account that the system needs some page cache to
+function well, and that not all reclaimable slab will be reclaimable,
+due to items being in use. The impact of those factors will vary from
+system to system.
+.IP kbmemused
+Amount of used memory in kilobytes (calculated as total installed memory \-

+Amount of memory in kilobytes needed for current workload.

+RAM/swap is needed to guarantee that there never is out of memory.
+.IP %commit
+Percentage of memory needed for current workload in relation to the
+total amount of memory (RAM+swap). This number may be greater
+than 100% because the kernel usually overcommits memory.
+.IP kbactive
+Amount of active memory in kilobytes (memory that has been used more recently
+and usually not reclaimed unless absolutely necessary).
+.IP kbinact
+Amount of inactive memory in kilobytes (memory which has been less recently
+used. It is more eligible to be reclaimed for other purposes).
+.IP kbdirty
+Amount of memory in kilobytes waiting to get written back to the disk.

+Amount of memory in kilobytes used by the kernel to cache data structures
+for its own use.

+.B S_COLORS
+By default statistics are displayed in color when the output is connected to a terminal.
+Use this variable to change the settings. Possible values for this variable are
+.IR "never" ", " "always " "or " "auto"
+(the latter is equivalent to the default settings).
+.br
+Please note that the color (being red, yellow, or some other color) used to display a value
+is not indicative of any kind of issue simply because of the color. It only indicates different

+.BR "W=" " (or " "M=" ")"
+SGR substring for percentage values in the range from 75% to 90% (or in the range 10% to 25%
+depending on the metric's meaning).
+It is also used for negative values in the range from \-10 to \-5.

+.BR "X=" " (or " "H=" ")"
+SGR substring for percentage values greater than or equal to 90% (or lower than or equal to 10%

+.B S_REPEAT_HEADER
+This variable contains the maximum number of lines after which a header has to be

+.TP
+.B S_TIME_DEF_TIME
+If this variable exists and its value is
+.BR "UTC " "then " "sar"
+will save its data in UTC time (data will still be displayed in local time).
+.B sar
+will also use UTC time instead of local time to determine the current daily
+data file located in the
+.I /var/log/sa
+directory. This variable may be useful for servers with users located across
+several timezones.
+.TP
+.B S_TIME_FORMAT
+If this variable exists and its value is
+.B ISO
+then the current locale will be ignored when printing the date in the report header.
+.RB "The " "sar"
+command will use the ISO 8601 format (YYYY-MM-DD) instead.
