CPU metrics are not coming through on my UBUNTU systems. Any idea why this is not happening? I have metrics from RHEL systems but not Ubuntu?

I actually fixed this, if you look at the cpu.sh script you will notice that mpstat is one of the actual commands used. mpstat is also on mh RHEL instances by default. That said if you run "apt install sysstat" on Ubuntu this problem will resolve.
