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.

Hi,

If processes waiting for CPU (on queue) are usually more than 3 or 5 can we conclude that CPU is not enough for that usage ?
