[Orca-users] SAR question, and response: Re: Measureware

You have to get the perl pod module installed. If you are running linux,
you can get it in rpm form from http://rufus.w3.net/

On the subject of space delimited files, can anyone tell me how to parse a
sar file from an AIX based sar command? here is some of the output that I
have to contend with:


AIX emb21008 3 4 000038704C00    08/16/99

00:00:00 scall/s sread/s swrit/s  fork/s  exec/s rchar/s wchar/s
00:15:00    1303     198      25    0.85    0.81  858931  102394
00:30:00    2574     306    1159    0.84    0.80 1039283  529155
01:00:00     122      12      12    0.43    0.38    9776   25020
01:15:00   10224    2871    3016    0.38    0.34 3242259 1453084

etc...

Can anyone lend me a clue? Thanks..
