Is there anyway to pull and graph SAR data from Linux servers in Zenoss?  I found sarparse http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/sarparse/index.php?title=Main_Page http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/sarparse/index.php?title=Main_Page which will do it for Cacti but was hoping for something to do it in Zenoss.  Thanks

SNMP sucks (we run a lot of system checks and graph lots of statistics, and this udp-based, non-threaded solution is too much of a risk, which doesnt scale well)

Zenoss monitors very large environements using SNMP, and I highly double the script mentioned in that post out-scales Zenoss distributed collectors.

So long story short, I'm not aware of anything native to Zenoss to parse sars data, but I also don't think you really need to. If your 100% sure it has to be parsed sars output, a command data source is what your after.
