Then it is working correctly if it's adding up to 100%. It is reporting on all 12 cpus. It isn't going to report each by itself (just as it doesn't tell you memory board one was used 90% but memory board 2 was used only 50%). And yes, it can specify disks because you can do something with them.
If you have a cpu problem, you add cpus (or move something off or run at different time).
Same with memory.
With disk you can move data around to get better performance - no need to buy new every time.
Sar should report on all cpu's since you want to know how the system as a whole is spending it's time.

Hi All,
I am trying to run sar on a Redhat server during a test I am performing for a couple of hours. I would like to get the sar metrics for every second (instead of the regularly set up 10 minute interval in the cron). What is the most efficient way to do this?
Thanks,
