Hi expert:

Splunk 6.0 on Redhat5 x64
Forwarder 6.0 on SUSE Linux (Linux linux-jela 2.6.34-12-desktop #1 SMP PREEMPT 2010-06-29 02:39:08 +0200 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux)
unixTA Splunk_TA_nix-5.0.1-185737

I can't see the cpu value in Hosts tab. It show me 'CPU: unknown - is cpu.sh enabled?'
But the 'Ram' &'Disk' & 'Capacity' are correct.

I checked the inputs.conf in local file on the unixTA. The 'Shows stats per CPU (useful for SMP machines)' status is 'disabled = 0'.
When I run cpu.sh in /opt/splunkforwarder/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_nix/bin manually, but there is nothing result.

How can I solve the issus?

Thank you

Have you installed sysstat on the monitored nodes?
