Expounding on what sysgate said, you need to run "sar". One, however, just doesn't "run" sar. Check the crontabs for a line containing "sa1" and/or "sa2". If not, look at the man pages for sa1 and sa2. Once you've been running these for a while, you can look at basically anything in the last month using the "sar" command-line tool.
