nfsstat -l

tatlee — Thu, 16 Apr 2009 08:39:14 GMT

I am trying to display the NFS client info by issuing the command "nfsstat -l", however it comes up with the usage as below:

fas3070-rtp3*> nfsstat -l
usage: nfsstat <interval> [ <count> ]
usage: vfiler run <vfname> nfsstat -h [ <hostname or ip address> ] [ <interval> ]
usage: vfiler run <vfname> nfsstat -l [ <count> ]
usage: nfsstat -z
usage: nfsstat -C
usage: nfsstat [ -c ] [ -t ]

How come it requires the vfiler to run? I tried to input the filer name as the vfname but doesn't work. This is only the normal filer. I have truned on the 'options nfs.per_client_stats.enable'. Is there another command to display the clinet information?

Regards,

Terrence

Hmm, works perfectly fine here.

Which firmware are you running?

Hello Terrence !!
Just in case, whether nfsstat -l doesn't work, that because you're not pointing to the vfiler!!

Enable the NFS statics

options nfs.per_client_stats.enable on

NOTE:

Usually this options Should not remain ON , because causes an performance reduction, Please change it to OFF when you finish.

options nfs.per_client_stats.enable off

In order to reset counters:
houston>vfiler run vfiler0 nfsstat -Z

check the counters

houston>vfiler run vfiler0 nfsstat -l

===== vfiler0
10.10.39.112   <hostname unknown>              NFSOPS = 3717911586 ( 3%)
