All Motorola implementations of Unix support this - on both the 68000 and 
88000 platforms. 

Hence an my 88000 system:

15:00:42 serv/lo-hi   request   request    server    server
               3 - 6     %busy  avg lgth    %avail avg avail
15:00:47          3       0.0         0      99.5         3

Please also keep in mind that these server stats are for RFS file servers - 
if you don't run RFS on your network, you won't see anything in sar -S, since 
you do not have the code installed to do so!  I hope this sheds some light . . .
