nfsstat - Network File System statistics
SYNOPSIS
nfsstat
[
-cmnrsz
]
AVAILABILITY
This program is available with the
Networking
software installation option. Refer to
[a manual with the abbreviation INSTALL]
for information on how to install optional software.
DESCRIPTION
nfsstat
displays statistical information about the
NFS
(Network File System) and
RPC
(Remote Procedure Call), interfaces to the kernel.
It can also be used to reinitialize this information.
If no options are given the default is
nfsstat -cnrs
That is, display everything, but reinitialize nothing.
OPTIONS
- -c
-
Display client information.
Only the client side
NFS
and
RPC
information will be printed.
Can be combined with the
-n
and
-r
options to print client
NFS
or client
RPC
information only.
- -m
-
Display statistics for each
NFS
mounted file system.
This includes the server name and address,
mount flags, current read and write sizes, the
retransmission count, and the timers used for
dynamic retransmission.
The
srtt
value contains the smoothed round trip time, the
dev
value contains the estimated deviation,
and the
cur
value is the current backed-off retransmission value.
- -n
-
Display
NFS
information.
NFS
information for both the client and server side will be printed.
Can be combined with the
-c
and
-s
options to print client or server
NFS
information only.
- -r
-
Display
RPC
information.
- -s
-
Display server information.
- -z
-
Zero (reinitialize) statistics.
This option is for use by the super-user only, and
can be combined with any of the above options to
zero particular sets of statistics after printing them.
DISPLAYS
The server
RPC
display includes the following fields:
-
- calls
-
The total number of
RPC
calls received.
- badcalls
-
The total number of calls rejected by the
RPC
layer (the sum of
badlen
and
xdrcall
as defined below).
- nullrecv
-
The number of times an
RPC
call was not available when it was thought to be received.
- badlen
-
The number of
RPC
calls with a length shorter than a minimum-sized
RPC
call.
- xdrcall
-
The number of
RPC
calls whose header could not be
XDR
decoded.
The server
NFS
display shows the number of
NFS
calls received
(calls)
and rejected
(badcalls),
and the counts and percentages for the various calls that were
made.
The client
RPC
display includes the following fields:
-
- calls
-
The total number of
RPC
calls made.
- badcalls
-
The total number of calls rejected by the
RPC
layer.
- retrans
-
The number of times a call had to be retransmitted
due to a timeout while waiting for a reply from the server.
- badxid
-
The number of times a reply from a server was received which did
not correspond to any outstanding call.
- timeout
-
The number of times a call timed out while waiting for a reply from the
server.
- wait
-
The number of times a call had to wait because no client handle was
avaiable.
- newcred
-
The number of times authentication information had to be refreshed.
- timers
-
The number of times the calculated time-out value was greater than
or equal to the minimum specified time-out value for a call.
The client
NFS
display shows the number of calls sent and rejected, as well
as the number of times a
CLIENT
handle was received
(nclget),
the number of times a call had to sleep while awaiting a
handle
(nclsleep),
as well as a count of the various calls and their respective
percentages.
