Adds use of sar -q to get "rq-size" (Run queue size) on Linux. Adds "Wait IO %" on Linux. Both are measurements. Fixes a bug in parsing that caused the time stamp of the sar logs to be delayed by one sar interval.
pacct_to_psm is now allowed to complete processing of a pacct file that contains more faulty records. Earlier, the process would be aborted after a certain number of such records. The error checking can be turned on / off by setting a directive in /etc/opt/openit/openit.cfg: PACCT_CHECK_ERROR (on|off) If the directive is not present, the default behavior is as before, "on". sar has been extended to handle version 9 of the sysstat package.
Update on the module that converts UID to user name. Us of "ypcat" can be turned on or off by setting in /etc/opt/openit/openit.cfg: UID_YPCAT (true|false) The default is to use "ypcat".
Unpack tar file in e.g /tmp/patch on the Open iT host. Do the following as root: cd /tmp/patch ./patch.pl
