FAQ

  • Solaris
  • AIX

  • Create a SAR output as a text file from the Unix server.
  • Download the SAR text file to the desktop
  • Upload the SAR text file to this site.
  • The site will create all the charts.

Yes. Just upload the SAR data file into the tool and hold on for 30 seconds to 3 minutes for the tool to process the input file. The time may vary based on the size of the input SAR data file

There could be a scenario where the input file is processed without any issues but there were no charts generated. This could be because of date format issue.
Please try generating your sarfile again using

For single day file:
S_TIME_FORMAT=ISO sar -A -f /var/log/sa/sa > /tmp/sa_$(uname -n).txt
For multiple days files:
ls /var/log/sa/sa?? | xargs -i sh -c "S_TIME_FORMAT=ISO sar -A -f {}"  >  /tmp/sar_$(uname -n).txt

If the issue persist, please send a query via "Contact us" section.

When you upload the SAR file into the tool, this tool will parse the data and provide impressive charts that are viewed by clicking on the corresponding tabs on the left side. The "Export Report" button will be availale only after generating the charts from the data file.
