Thank you. Deleting file /var/log/sa.2004_10_03 and letting sa1 recreate it
did the trick.

You can alter its time-based dispatch in /etc/cron.d/sysstat (probably ...
if not there, then in one of the /etc/cron* directories). But if all
you're looking to do is squish the message, you can delete the file
currently being written (/var/log/sa.2004_10_03) so the next process
starts a brand new binary file with the right number of processors, rather
than changing its dispatch attributes. I think sa will just start a new
one.

Cannot append data to file /var/log/sa/sa.2004_10_03: the number of
processors has changed
We are running 2 SuSE Linux 8.1 SP03 in native LPAR modes on an IBM
2066-002. We were originally sharing 2 central processors. Over this
weekend, we installed an IFL and I reconfigured the Linux LPARs to share
the IFL. All seems well and everything seems to be functioning but I am
seeing the following message:
Cannot append data to file /var/log/sa/sa.2004_10_03: the number of
processors has changed
The number of processors did change, from a 2 shared central processors to
1 shared IFL. Where do I re-configure the sa command to prevent this
message from being issued ever 10 minutes. Thanks.
Peter
