    Try using sar instead.

       sar -u

    Your system is probably storing the sar output for 30 days.  Ours is stored in /var/adm/sa as saDD where DD is the day of the month.  Your location may be different.  If you find the archived sar files use ‘sar -f filename’ to view a specific file.

    You can also get information from sar about your calls, kernel,  paging, etc.

    You could also use vmstat to get memory, paging, faults and cpu usage.
