Ok, I have a problem that is stumping myself and the other admin here. We
just got some new servers in, a couple of V880s and some V240s. We installed
Solaris 9 on them (12/03 on the V240, 06/03 on the V880 when we saw problems
on the 240) For some reason, sar is not working as it does everywhere else.
I am using the same crontab entries that I have working on a V120 running Sol
9, and still no dice. It starts up fine, but the incremental updates don't
seem to be happening.
Here are the relevant files and info:
# cat /var/spool/cron/crontabs/sys
#ident "@(#)sys 1.5 92/07/14 SMI" /* SVr4.0 1.2 */
#
# The sys crontab should be used to do performance collection. See cron
# and performance manual pages for details on startup.

There are no error messages in syslog or in my mail.
Any ideas?
TIA! I will summarize.
