performance counters across supported Microsoft Windows and
Linux operating systems.
Dependencies for Performance Monitoring
Installing Systat for Linux Performance Monitoring
Confirm if the rpm for this library is already present on the Linux server by
typing:
rpm -qa | grep sysstat
If the rpm is present, run this command to install the library:
rpm -i <package name>
If the library or rpm is not present on the Linux server, download it from:
pagesperso-orange.fr/sebastien.godard/
You can also find the rpm on the Linux operating system media.
Download the rpm to the Linux server and install the rpm as described earlier.
NOTE: It is highly recommended that you do not compile the sysstat source.
