ATSAR(1)

NAME

atsar -- system activity report

SYNOPSIS

atsar [ -flags ] t [ n ]

atsar [ -flags ] [ -s time ] [ -e time ] [ -i sec ] [ -f file | -n day#
]

DESCRIPTION

The program atsar(1) can be used to deliver statistics. The design of this program can be compared with the standard sadc(1) and sar(1) programs being delivered for other UNIX-implementations, i.e. a data-collector which reads the statistical counters (from the files under the directory /proc ) and a presentation-program which formats the counters and presents them on stdout.

In the first synopsis line, atsar samples cumulative activity counters in the kernel at n intervals of t seconds, where t should be 1 or greater. The default value of n is 1.

The type of command shown in the first synopsis line immediately sends the output for every option specified to standard output. If only one type of statistical counter is requested, the header is printed once and after every t seconds the statistical counters are shown for that period. If several options are requested, a header is printed per sample followed by the statistical counters for that period.

In the second synopsis line (no sampling interval specified), atsar extracts data from a previously recorded file, either the one specified by the -f option or, by default, the daily activity data file /var/log/atsar/atsadd for the current day dd (day of month). Alternatively the -n option can be used to specify the day of the month from which counters should be shown.

The starting and ending times of the report can be defined using the -s and -e time arguments of the form hh:mm. The -i option selects records at sec second intervals. Otherwise, all intervals found in the data file are reported.

The -flags option is used to define which statistical counters are presented:

-S By default the time-stamp at the beginning of a line is suppressed

if more lines are shown for one time-interval. With this flag a time-stamp is given for every output-line (easier for post-processing).

-A Statistics of all possible options.

-u Statistics about CPU utilization (average and per cpu).

-P Statistics about processes and load-averages.

-d Limited statistics about utilization of disks (2.4 kernel only).

-D Statistics about utilization of disks and disk-partitions.

-r Current memory- and swap-occupation.

-p Statistics about paging- and swapping-activity.

-I Statistics about the number interrupts per second.

-v Statistics about utilization of kernel-tables.

-y Statistics about utilization of tty's (serial interfaces).

-l Statistics about the network interfaces.

-L Statistics about errors for network-interfaces.

-w Statistics about IP (version 4) network traffic).

-W Statistics about errors for IP (version 4) traffic.

-m General statistics about ICMP (version 4) layer activity.

-M Per-type statistics about ICMP (version 4) layer activity.

-t Statistics about TCP network traffic.

-T Statistics about errors for TCP-traffic.

-U Statistics about UDP (version 4) network traffic.

-g Statistics about IP (version 6) network traffic).

-G Statistics about errors for IP (version 6) traffic.

-k General statistics about ICMP (version 6) layer activity.

-K Per-type statistics about ICMP (version 6) layer activity.

-N Statistics about NFS server- and client-requests.

-E Statistics about errors for NFS server- and client-requests.

-V Statistics about behaviour of NFS-server.

-R Statistics about the RPC-calls for NFS-requests. A transfer-rate

is given per type of RPC-request (percentage of total number of RPC-requests).

-F Optional statistics about the ftp-traffic. This flag only produces

relevant output if the script atsaftp is activated with regular intervals (by the script atsa1 ). Note that the names of the FTPlogfiles have to be specified in the /etc/atsar.conf configuration-file.

-H Optional statistics about the http-traffic. This flag only pro

duces relevant output if the script atsahttp is activated with regular intervals (by the script atsa1 ). Note that the names of the HTTP-logfiles have to be specified in the /etc/atsar.conf configuration-file.

OUTPUT DESCRIPTION

Depending on the flag, a number of columns with output-values are produced. The values are mostly presented as a number of events per second.

The output for the flag -u contains the following columns per cpu:

usr% Percentage of cpu-time consumed in user-mode (program-text)

for all active processes running with a nice-value of zero (default) or a negative nice-value (which means a higher priority than usual). The cpu-consumption in user-mode of processes with a nice-value larger than zero (lower priority) is indicated in the nice%-column.

nice% Percentage of cpu-time consumed in user-mode (i.e. program

text) for all processes running witn a nice-value larger than zero (which means with a lower priority than average).

sys% Percentage of cpu-time consumed in system-mode (kernel-text)

for all active processes. A high percentage usually indicates a lot of system calls being issued.

Kernel-version 2.4:
Interrupt-handling is also part of this percentage.

irq% Percentage of cpu-time consumed for interrupt-handling (not

for kernel-version 2.4).

softirq% Percentage of cpu-time consumed for soft interrupt-handling

(not for kernel-version 2.4).

idle% Percentage of unused cpu-time because all processes are in a

wait-state (>= kernel-version 2.6: but not waiting for diskI/O).

wait% Percentage of unused cpu-time. At least one of the processes

in wait-state awaits completion of disk-I/O (not for kernelversion 2.4).

The output for the flag -P contains the following values:

pswtch/s Number of process-switches (also called context-switches) per

second on all cpu's. A process-switch occurs at the moment that the active process (i.e. the process using a cpu) enters a wait-state or has used its time-slice completely;
another process will then be chosen to use the cpu.

runq Number of processes which are currently waiting for CPU

scheduling (including the processes which are currently active on a CPU).

nrproc Total number of processes which are currently present in the

system.

lavg1 Load-average reflecting the average number of processes in

the run-queue during the last minute.

the run-queue during the last 5 minutes.

the run-queue during the last 15 minutes.

For partitions which represent the entire physical disk, the total number of write-requests per second for all partitions on that disk is shown.

Kbyt/w Average number of Kbytes transferred per write-request for

this partition. For partitions which represent the entire physical disk, the average number of Kbytes per write-request for all partitions on that disk is shown.

ing the time that the disk is busy. This figure is only shown for partitions which represent the entire physical disk.

physical disk (seek, latency and data-transfer). This figure is only shown for partitions which represent the entire physical disk.

device per second.
