This article describes how to check  number of NSPPEs running on Netscaler 

---

Instructions

To determine the number of NSPPEs running on your Netscaler, you can utilize the following three methods. Please note that the example provided assumes a 4vCPU VPX configuration consisting of 3 NSPPEs and 1 management CPU.

Option 1:Command Line Interface (CLI) Command
Execute the following command: stat cpu. This CLI command will provide NSPPE CPU statistics, including information about the active NSPPEs.

> stat cpu
CPU statistics
ID Usage
3 1
2 1
1 1
Done

Option 2:sysctl Command on FreeBSD Shell
Using the FreeBSD shell, employ the `sysctl -a | grep num_pe_running` command to retrieve  the number of active NSPPEs.

> shell
root@ns# sysctl -a | grep  num_pe_running
netscaler.num_pe_running: 3  

Option 3: top Command on FreeBSD Shell
Another method on the FreeBSD shell is to make use of the top command. By running this command, you can gather details regarding the NSPPEs and ascertain the exact number of NSPPEs currently running.

  root@ns# top
  PID USERNAME  PRI NICE   SIZE    RES STATE   C   TIME    WCPU COMMAND
  460 root      103    0  1221M  1222M CPU2    2  39:29  99.11% NSPPE-01
  459 root      103    0  1222M  1222M CPU1    1  39:29  99.11% NSPPE-00
  458 root      103    0  1221M  1222M CPU3    3  39:29  99.11% NSPPE-02
