KAS_STATISTICS(8) AFS Command Reference KAS_STATISTICS(8)NAMEkas_statistics - Displays statistics from an Authentication Server
process
SYNOPSIS
kas statistics
[-admin_username <admin principal to use for authentication>]
[-password_for_admin <admin password>] [-cell <cell name>]
[-servers <explicit list of authentication servers>+]
[-noauth] [-help]
kas sta [-a <admin principal to use for authentication>]
[-p <admin password>] [-c <cell name>]
[-s <explicit list of authentication servers>+] [-n] [-h]
DESCRIPTION
The kas statistics command displays statistics from the Authentication
Server running on one of the cell's database server machines. Use the
-servers argument to name a specific machine, or the command
interpreter chooses one at random from all the database server machines
with which it has established connections.
CAUTIONS
The -servers argument is not available in interactive mode, making it
impossible to specify a certain machine.
OPTIONS-admin_username <admin principal>
Specifies the user identity under which to authenticate with the
Authentication Server for execution of the command. For more
details, see kas(8).
-password_for_admin <admin password>
Specifies the password of the command's issuer. If it is omitted
(as recommended), the kas command interpreter prompts for it and
does not echo it visibly. For more details, see kas(8).
-cell <cell name>
Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see
kas(8).
-servers <authentication servers>+
Names each machine running an Authentication Server with which to
establish a connection. For more details, see kas(8).
-noauth
Assigns the unprivileged identity "anonymous" to the issuer. For
more details, see kas(8).
-help
Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
are ignored.
OUTPUT
The information in the output includes:
· The number of allocation and freeing operations the Authentication
Server has performed, and how many password change requests it has
processed.
· An indication of its hash table use.
· The server machine's IP address in hexadecimal and the date when
the current instance of the Authentication Server started.
· The number of requests and aborted requests for various services:
authentication, ticket granting, password setting, entry listing,
and so on.
· The amount of CPU time that the Authentication Server has used to
process requests since it started. The amount is not accurate on
all system types, however.
· The number of entries in the Authentication Database that are
marked with the "ADMIN" flag.
EXAMPLES
In the following example, an administrator using the admin account
gathers statistics from the Authentication Server running on the
machine "fs1.abc.com".
% kas statistics -servers fs1.abc.com
56 allocs, 46 frees, 0 password changes
Hash table utilization = 0.100000%
