The free memory was previously reported as "memory pages" by SAR. It has been changed to KB. This is the client update needed for Solaris clients in this respect. It updates sar_to_psm and SAR.pm. The patch also contains an update to fix the client daemon that caused a possible loss of data as a result of PID rotation. This applies to all platforms. Client.pm is updated for this fix. Patch 966 is the corresponding server patch.
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".
