Thanks for you answer.

I have sar on the machine
this is the output
00:01:00 %usr %sys %wio %idle
00:06:01 5 5 0 89

But whats the meaning of these percentages is it just for CPU or a average of the whole system.Does it mean that the system has been used 5% by the user 5% by the system itself %wio don t know what this is and 89% the system was idle?
And is it just for CPU, what is with ram , disk and IO
Maybe you know any tool that can do that like nagios but with out installing any client on the servers.
