We have similar "rules" to discourage DBAs using top, especially
when there is a high load. But I can't understand why sar. Did
they ever explain that ?



You can use "top -b" to get a snapshot of top. This will not use
a lot of CPU cycles like the continuous mode. Usually I find that
good enough for performance tuning purposes.



Your sys adms need to learn how to trust DBAs.
