Hi all,

This is to announce the release of sysstat, version 4.1.5 for Linux.
Sysstat 4.1.5 is a development version and is available for download from my
web page:
http://perso.wanadoo.fr/sebastien.godard/

By the time you read this, it should also be available on ibiblio's Linux
archive site (formerly known as Metalab):
ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/status/
108kB sysstat-4.1.5.tar.gz
110kB sysstat-4.1.5-1.src.rpm
62kB sysstat-4.1.5-1.i386.rpm

The sysstat utilities are a collection of performance monitoring tools for
Linux. These include sar, mpstat, iostat and sa tools.

Changes vs 4.1.4 are:
2003/07/21: Version 4.1.5
WARNING: Daily data files format has changed, and is *not* compatible with the
previous one! Delete existing data files in /var/log/sa directory!
* 'sar -x <pid>' and 'sar -X <pid>' work again.
* sar had a longstanding bug that prevented option -P from working properly if
the machine had more than 32 processors. This is now fixed.
* Fixed a bug introduced in 4.1.2, which made some LINUX RESTART messages to
not be displayed by sar.
* sar now uses bitmap of char instead of int to avoid endianness problems.
* sar can now handle a huge number of processors, serial lines and network
interfaces.
* FAQ updated.
