System Administration Commands                        nfsstat(1M)



NAME
     nfsstat - NFS statistics

SYNOPSIS
     nfsstat [-cnrsza] [-v version] [interval [count]


     nfsstat -m [pathname]...


DESCRIPTION
     nfsstat displays statistical information about the  NFS  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 as follows:


     nfsstat -csnra


     The default displays everything, but reinitializes nothing.

OPTIONS
     -a

         Display NFSACL information.


     -c

         Display client information. Only the  client  side  NFS,
         RPC, and NFSACL information is printed. Can be combined
         with the -n, -r, and -a options  to  print  client  side
         NFS, RPC, and NFSACL information only.


     -m [pathname...]

         Display statistics for each NFS mounted file system.  If
         pathname  is  not specified, displays statistics for all
         NFS mounted file  systems.  If  pathname  is  specified,
         displays  statistics  for  the  NFS mounted file systems
         indicated by pathname.

         This includes the server name and address, mount  flags,
         current  read and write sizes, the retransmission count,
         the attribute cache timeout  values,  failover  informa-
         tion,  and  the  timers used for dynamic retransmission.
         The dynamic retransmission  timers  are  displayed  only
         where  dynamic retransmission is in use. By default, NFS
         mounts over the TCP protocols and NFS Version  3  mounts
         over   either   TCP   or   UDP   do   not   use  dynamic

         retransmission.

         If you specify the -m option, this is  the  only  option
         that nfsstat uses. If you specify other options with -m,
         you receive an error message alerting that the  -m  flag
         cannot be combined with other options.


     -n

         Display NFS information. NFS information  for  both  the
         client and server side are 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.


     -v version

         Specify which NFS version for which to print statistics.
         When followed by the optional version argument, (234),
         specifies  statistics  for  that  version.  By  default,
         prints statistics for all versions.


     -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.


OPERANDS
     The following operands are supported:

     count

         Display only count reports


     interval
