Description dmitry serpokryl 2005-11-09 09:39:36 UTC
During boot "sadc" took approx 30-60 seconds and returned "failed" status. Directory "/var/log/sa" hadn't been created.

Solution:
compile the latest stable "sysstat-6.0.1" without removing old one to preserve link in "/etc/init.d/".

OS: OSS 10-x64, Athlon 64.

/var/log/sa/ is present when I install sysstat.

did you upgrade your system?

rpm -q sysstat
sysstat-5.0.6-6

Comment 2 dmitry serpokryl 2005-11-11 17:03:25 UTC
System updates daily from "gwdg.de" repository. Sysstat-5.0.6-6 - is default package and there was no updates till now for it. Sysstat-6.0.1 compilled from source and installed in "/usr". Previous default package binaries were simply overwritten.
Comment 3 Marcus Meissner 2005-11-15 09:09:45 UTC
do you have /var on a seperate partition?

i tried to reproduce but failed.
Comment 4 dmitry serpokryl 2005-11-30 09:27:31 UTC
/hdb1 - swap
/hdb2 - /  (root partition, only /home lies separately)
/hdb3 - /home

Mb: Asus A8V Deluxe (with RaLink pci wi-fi)
Hd: Seagate IDE (both for hda&hdb)

Only one guess: could this happend due to misconfigured wi-fi card? I still have some issues in compilation of a native RaLink kernel module (it's quite a funny task) and wi-fi is available only after manual start of $yast > network devices (yast script makes proper hardware detection and ra0 finally is up, orinico module handles wi-fi perfectly). Unfortunately I can't make it automatically on boot.

sysstat updated to 6.0.2 in STABLE
