Hi all,

This new year starts with a new development series for sysstat. The
result will be a set of commands that will work with cutting edge
Linux kernels (2.5.x and above). Sysstat 4.1.1 is the first version
that is made available on ibiblio's Linux archive site (formerly known
as Metalab):
ftp://ibiblio.org/pub/Linux/system/status/
102kB  sysstat-4.1.1.tar.gz
104kB  sysstat-4.1.1-1.src.rpm
65kB  sysstat-4.1.1-1.i386.rpm

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

Changes vs 4.0.7 are:
2003/01/02: Version 4.1.1
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 -u/-U, iostat and mpstat can now display time spent in I/O wait
mode (with 2.5 kernels and above).
* Values like -1 and -2 are no longer aliases for keywords ALL and
XALL (sar -U, sar -I, mpstat -P).
* Buglet fixed in iostat.h.
* LC_CTYPE needs to be set, or it will emit messages with ?????? only
on some locales, especially ja_JP.eucJP
* sar, mpstat and iostat manual pages updated.
* NLS updated.
* CREDITS file updated.
* Typo removed in FAQ file.

Enjoy!
