one idea:
1. write a shell script to run vmstat command and append its output to a text file
2. run this script every 5 minutes using cron
3. write another script that copies the output file (using ftp) to your desktop folder and then clean the output file - cp /dev/null output_file
4. run this script using cron everyday at midnight

Hi,
Recently from the vmstat output in the image attached, the first line of the cpu idle column shows a value of 15. Although the subsequent values show higher than 90, is there a reason why the first value is so low?
Is this a problem?
Thanks. (4 Replies)

UPDATE-PROFILE-CACHE(1) General Commands Manual UPDATE-PROFILE-CACHE(1)
NAME
update-profile-cache - (re)generate profile assignment cache
SYNOPSIS
update-profile-cache
DESCRIPTION
Running this script (re)generates the cache of profile assignments used by desktop-profiles. By default this script is run automatically
once a day by a cron script.
NOTE: No cache of assignments will be generated in cases where cache use isn't supported by desktop-profiles (at the moment caching pro-
file assingments is only supported in the simple case when no group or command requirements are used for activation of profiles,
i.e. when we have a static machine-wide profile assignment).
FILES
/etc/desktop-profiles/*.listing - Files containing the metadata about installed profiles
/etc/default/desktop-profiles - File containing default settings for this script
