The above should only work when the sysstat package is installed.
root@blondie ~]# yum whatprovides "*/iostat"

I am intregued by the "*/" in your yum command. Is that to make yum
match the filename on it's absolute path?
The reason I ask this is many times I would like to install a certain
program, but can't remember what package provides it. So I run:
# yum whatprovides <program> (e.g. sar)
And more often or not it never matches any package, even though I know
damn well it's in the repo somewhere. I usually google to find out the
answer in the end.
