SYNOPSIS

9       nfsstat [-cnrsza] [-T u | d ] [-v version] [interval [count]]

12       nfsstat -m [pathname]...

DESCRIPTION

16       nfsstat  displays statistical information about the NFS and RPC (Remote
17       Procedure Call), interfaces to the kernel.  It  can  also  be  used  to
18       reinitialize  this  information. If no options are given the default is
19       as follows:
20
21
22       nfsstat -csnra
23
24
25       The default displays everything, but reinitializes nothing.
26

OPTIONS

28       -a
29
30           Display NFS_ACL information.
31
32
33       -c
34
35           Display client information. Only the  client  side  NFS,  RPC,  and
36           NFS_ACL  information  is  printed. Can be combined with the -n, -r,
37           and -a options to print client side NFS, RPC, and NFS_ACL  informa‐
38           tion only.
39
40
41       -m [pathname...]
42
43           Display statistics for each NFS mounted file system. If pathname is
44           not specified, displays statistics for all NFS  mounted  file  sys‐
45           tems.  If  pathname  is  specified, displays statistics for the NFS
46           mounted file systems indicated by pathname.
47
48           This includes the server name and  address,  mount  flags,  current
49           read and write sizes, the retransmission count, the attribute cache
50           timeout values, failover  information,  and  the  timers  used  for
51           dynamic  retransmission. The dynamic retransmission timers are dis‐
52           played only where dynamic retransmission is in use. By default, NFS
53           mounts  over the TCP protocols and NFS Version 3 mounts over either
54           TCP or UDP do not use dynamic retransmission.
55
56           If you specify the -m option, this is the only option that  nfsstat
57           uses.  If  you  specify other options with -m, you receive an error
58           message alerting that the -m flag cannot  be  combined  with  other
59           options.
60
61
62       -n
63
64           Display  NFS  information.  NFS information for both the client and
65           server side are printed. Can be combined with the -c and -s options
66           to print client or server NFS information only.
67
68
69       -r
70
71           Display RPC information.
72
73
74       -s
75
76           Display server information.
77
78
79       -T u | d
80
81           Display a time stamp.
82
83           Specify  u for a printed representation of the internal representa‐
84           tion of time. See time(2). Specify d for standard date format.  See
85           date(1).
86
87
88       -v version
89
90           Specify  which NFS version for which to print statistics. When fol‐
91           lowed by the optional version argument, (2|3|4), specifies  statis‐
92           tics  for  that version. By default, prints statistics for all ver‐
93           sions.
94
95
96       -z
97
98           Zero (reinitialize) statistics. This option is for use by the super
99           user  only,  and  can  be combined with any of the above options to
100           zero particular sets of statistics after printing them.
101
102
