SYNOPSIS
     //uussrr//lliibb//ssaa//ssaa22 [-ddggppuu] [-nn mode] [-ee time] [-ff filename] [-ii seconds]
                     [-ss time]

DESCRIPTION
     The ssaa22 command is a shell script used to invoke the system activity
     reporter ssaarr for purposes of generating the standard default daily report
     file.  The report file generated is, /var/log/sa/sardd where the dd rep-
     resents the current day of the month.  The ssaa22 options are the same as
     those documented in ssaarr((11)).

     When ssaa22 runs, it will also remove data and report files, found in
     /var/log/sa, that are more than one week old.

     The ssaa22 command is intended to be started by cron.
