thanks vgersh99
what do you mean by utility? Does it means some iostat packages has not been installed on my server?

I don't know what you mean by 'packages' in this context, but the utility/executable/binary/whatnot called 'iostat' is not found on your system.

iostat (and vmstat) are standard unix utilities which pre-date M$.
What operating system are you running?
uname -a
