sysstat-11.7.2 sysstat version 11.7.2 final packaging. lsm and spec files updated. Changelog added. Year updated in (C) message. After one additional month of hard work, sysstat version 11.7.2 seems to be quite stable on my machine. It should now be possible to use it safely on production systems. BTW I told you that sar's data files new binary format would be at least 25% smaller than with previous versions. I could have even said 30% to 45% smaller! Version 11.7.2 also incl 10B7F udes a rewritten function that will enable you to convert your old data files (from versions 9.1.6 and later) to the up-to-date format (11.7.2). Please upload, test and tell me if anything goes wrong. Signed-off-by: Sebastien GODARD <sysstat@users.noreply.github.com>
sysstat-11.7.1 sysstat version 11.7.1 final packaging. lsm and spec files updated. Changelog added. NOTE: Stable versions (11.2.14 [EOL], 11.4.8 and 11.6.2) also exist and will be available for download from my web site: http://pagesperso-orange.fr/sebastien.godard/ The stable versions include only the bug fixes added in sysstat 11.7.1 but not the new features. Version 11.7.1 includes major changes concerning sar's binary data file format and how sar works. Among them: * A binary data file should take much less space on disk thanks to new optimizations on how values are stowed in memory. The space saved is estimated at least at 25% compared to previous format. * Structures are no longer statically allocated, meaning that the system can now register as many new devices (disks, network interfaces, etc.) as needed and you will find all of them saved in your saXX data file (provided that you have selected the corresponding activities to collect). Previous version could lead to some devices being ignored and going unnoticed if no free structures were left. * Sar (and sadf) will now be able to read a binary data file whatever its endianness is: Both big-endian and little-endian files can be read by the same sar or sadf executable. * More flexibility has been added to sar's binary data file format. I cannot promise that the format won't change again in the future but it should now be possible to add new metrics or activities without making the format unreadable by older sar versions (starting with version 11.7.1). Older versions will be able to read newer formats but will display only the metrics they currently know. Version 11.7.1 is a development version. As such, it is still NOT ready for use in production. Yet I would really like to have it tested by the maximum number of users and get feedback! :-) NOTE: The function provided by sadf (option -c) to convert an old data file to the up-to-date format has been temporarily inhibited. This function will be working again in next sysstat version (11.7.2). Signed-off-by: Sebastien GODARD <sysstat@users.noreply.github.com>
