I am interested in any "history" in the SAR option of "S". This option
gives statistics on "server requests, availability, etc". However, in
the MIPs version of Unix, while they support the -S- option, the results
are always zero (0). I also can not find any place in the source code
which updates the table which stores the information, i.e. no one updates
the table with structure of "dinfo" which is contained in the file sysinfo.h.
12:56:24 serv/lo-hi request request server server
0 - 0 %busy avg lgth %avail avg avail
12:56:25 0 0.0 0 0.0 0
Does other implementations of Unix update this information? Does someone
have some history on it? If so, where can I read about it.
Thx,
Chris Duffy

Does someone >have some history on it? If so, where can I read about it. All Motorola implementations of Unix support this - on both the 68000 and 88000 platforms. Hence an my 88000 system: 15:00:42 serv/lo-hi request request server server 3 - 6 %busy avg lgth %avail avg avail 15:00:47 3 0.0 0 99.5 3 Please also keep in mind that these server stats are for RFS file servers - if you don't run RFS on your network, you won't see anything in sar -S, since you do not have the code installed to do so! I hope this sheds some light . . . -- ================================================================================ Tim Dawson (...!texsun!Athena!tim) Motorola Computer Systems, Dallas, TX.

The "S" option shows RFS server activity.
