Package: sysstat Version: 6.0.0-2 Severity: wishlist Hi,
Having recently upgraded from 5.0.6 to 6.0.0, I think the upgrade could be handled a bit better. For example, a NEWS.Debian mentioning that the sadf command has taken over some of the output functionality of sar. Also, it seems that sa1 no longer collects disk statistics by default - it needs to be called with -d. I know I was getting disk statistics before, so this was a bit of a srurpise when I no longer had any disk statistics. Finally, it would be nice if there was a way of converting the old log files to the new format. In my case, it wasn't a big deal, because I throw them into a database once a day, so I only lost part of a day's worth of logfiles, but this could be really annoying if someone upgrades towards the end of the month and they only post-process their logs at the start of the month or something. regards Andrew -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers stable APT policy: (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=en_AU.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_AU.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages sysstat depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.4.30.13 Debian configuration management sy ii libc6 2.3.2.ds1-22 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an Versions of packages sysstat recommends: ii cron 3.0pl1-86 management of regular background p -- debconf information: sysstat/notice: * sysstat/enable: true sysstat/remove_files: true -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
