Andrei,

Thank you for taking the time to reply.  What doesn't make sense to me is that /etc/sysconfig/sysstat is configured with HISTORY=7, but there are nine days of files being maintained.

Thanks.

Sean

Is there some way to modify the process so the files are stored indefinitely?  I know I could write a script to copy the files to an archive directory, but I'm thinking that something is causing the files to be deleted, and it would be cleaner to change that aspect of it.

/etc/sysconfig/sysstat:

# How long to keep log files (days), maximum is a month
HISTORY=7

You're welcome.
