The sar command collect, report, or save UNIX / Linux system activity information. It will save selected counters in the operating system to the /var/log/sa/sadd file. From the collected data, you get lots of information about your server such as:
1. CPU utilization 2. Memory paging and its utilization 3. Network I/O, and transfer statistics 4. Process creation activity 5. All block devices activity 6. Interrupts/sec etc.
sar output can be used for identifying server bottlenecks. However, analyzing information provided by sar can be difficult, so use kSar, which can take sar output and plot a nice easy to understand graph over period of time.
