[SOLARIS] why i can not use "sa" command?

netbanker

first time i type sar, it prompt can not open /var/adm/sa/sa26, no such file or directory.

So i create sa26 file

second time, it says not such command..



thx!

to use sar without other options,you must first do the following things:
1.crontab -e sys
uncomment all the lines
2.wait for a while
3.then you can use sar to see the result.

If you want to see the result in real time,try this :sar -u 5 10 ,which means to see the cpu resource ten times and each time uses 5 secs as a sample period.

See the sar\'s man for details.

netbanker

it prompts \"Not authorized to use cron\"  

I am using root.

please see the crontab\'man for more detail.(man crontab)
