Description Charles Seraphine 2001-06-25 21:07:42 UTC
From Bugzilla Helper:
User-Agent: Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 5.0; Windows NT; DigExt)

Description of problem:
Every sa2 run generates an error like this:
Cannot open /var/log/sa/sa22: No such file or directory
Touching the file just changes it to an "invalid" error.  Could this be 
related to the goofy crontabbing of sar in /etc/crontab?

How reproducible:
Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Install sysstat
2.Wait for it to run
3.Read the fun and exciting errors in roots mail
	

Actual Results:  You are emailed errors as in the description.  Note that 
a few of the days seem to collect data.  Here is an ls of /var/log/sa/ 
from a box that has been up for over a month:
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       191449 Jun 16 23:50 sa16
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       191449 Jun 17 23:50 sa17
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       191449 Jun 23 23:50 sa23
-rw-r--r--    1 root     root       191449 Jun 24 23:50 sa24
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root       186807 Jun 16 19:05 sar16
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root       186807 Jun 17 19:05 sar17
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root            0 Jun 18 19:05 sar18
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root            0 Jun 19 19:05 sar19
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root            0 Jun 20 19:05 sar20
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root            0 Jun 21 19:05 sar21
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root            0 Jun 22 19:05 sar22
-rw-rw-rw-    1 root     root       186807 Jun 23 19:05 sar23



Expected Results:  The sa files should have data, allowing me to use sar 
to get performance data.

Additional info:

Seems to work ok in RHL7.1.

Comment 1 Preston Brown 2001-06-29 17:08:15 UTC
We released sysstat errata for RHL 7.0 that fixed this problem.  Or upgrade to 
7.1.
