Description

This article contains information about the newnslog clustering related counters and a brief description.

Using the Counters

Log on to the ADC using an SSH client, change to SHELL, navigate to the /var/nslog directory, and then use the ‘nsconmsg’ command to see comprehensive statistics using the different counters available. For the detailed procedure refer to Citrix Blog - NetScaler ‘Counters’ Grab-Bag!.

 ADC Cluster Counters

newnslog counterDescription
cl_cur_enableState of the cluster
cl_cur_nodes_numNumber of nodes in the cluster
cl_cur_vleaderNetScaler IP (NSIP) address of the Configuration Coordinator (CCO) of the cluster
cl_tot_dfd_steeredpktsTotal number of packets steered on the cluster backplane
cl_err_dfd_dropped_steeredpktsNumber of steered packets that are dropped
cl_tot_bkplane_rx_mbitsTraffic received on backplane (in mbits)
cl_tot_bkplane_tx_mbitsTraffic transmitted from backplane (in mbits)
clusterd_tot_cu_timedoutNumber of times the update to the client timed-out
cl_cur_nodeipNSIP address of the cluster node
cl_cur_adminstateAdmin State of the node in the cluster
cl_cur_masterstateOperational state of the cluster node
cl_eff_healthHealth of the cluster node
clusterd_cur_recstateSync state of the cluster node
clusterd_cur_chstateHealth State of the node with respect to sync in the cluster
cl_tot_hb_tx_pktsNumber of heartbeats sent. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
cl_tot_hb_rx_pktsNumber of heartbeats received. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
cl_local_hb_tx_pktsHeartbeats Sent to node
cl_local_hb_rx_pktsHeartbeats received from node
cl_tot_ptp_rx_pktsNumber of PTP packets received on the node. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
cl_tot_ptp_tx_pktsNumber of PTP packets transmitted by the node. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
cl_cur_ptp_statePTP state of the node. This state is Master for one node and Slave for the rest. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows UNKNOWN. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
nnm_cur_local_connNumber of connections open for node-to-node communication
nnm_tot_conn_local_msg_txNumber of node-to-node messages sent. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
nnm_tot_conn_local_msg_rxNumber of node-to-node messages received. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
nnm_err_local_msg_msendNumber of errors in sending node-to-node multicast/broadcast messages. When executed from the NSIP address, shows the statistics for local node only. For remote node it shows a value of 0. When executed from the cluster IP address, shows all the statistics
