There are built in scripts for sar continus monitoring and rotation.

Check out output of crontab -l sys
It should look like (commented) :
Code:
# 20,40 8-17 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa1
# 5 18 * * 1-5 /usr/lib/sa/sa2 -s 8:00 -e 18:01 -i 1200 -A

Be sure to prepare filesystem /var/adm/sa with sufficient space for 7 days (default rotation of sar files)

Check out the documentation for your desired intervals (minute, 5 minutes or alike)

Hope that helps
Regards
Peasant.
