FS_RXSTATPROC(1)

πŸ’– FS_RXSTATPROC(1) β€” AFS Command Reference πŸ’–

okay bestie, come sit with me, we're doing a whole manual page and honestly? it's a short one, we ate. this is FS_RXSTATPROC(1) from the AFS Command Reference, and it's all about per-process Rx statistics β€” the vibe check for your RPC counters, if you will.


🌸 NAME 🌸

fs_rxstatproc β€” manage per-process Rx statistics collection ✨


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

fs rxstatproc [-enable] [-disable] [-clear] [-help]

that's it. that's the whole thing. main character energy, no notes. πŸ’…


πŸŽ€ DESCRIPTION πŸŽ€

so like, this command turns on or turns off the updating of RPC statistics counters that are tied to the entire RX process (yes, the whole process, not just one peer, iykyk β€” that's a different command, see SEE ALSO below πŸ‘€).

and if you want a fresh start? it can also set the accumulated counter values back to zero. it's giving factory reset but make it ✨statistics✨.


✨ OPTIONS ✨

one or more of the following options must be specified, bestie. you can't just run it raw.
  • -enable β€” enable the collection of process RPC statistics. the lights are ON. πŸ’‘
  • -disable β€” enable the collection of process RPC statistics. 😭 okay so that is literally what the page says, word for word, and I am just the messenger here β€” I am not about to invent facts for you. periodt.
  • -clear β€” resets all trace counters to zero. clean slate, fresh face, brand new day. 🧼
  • -help β€” prints the online help for this command. and heads up: all other valid options are ignored when you do this. -help is the main character and everyone else gets sidelined. πŸ‘‘

🌈 OUTPUT 🌈

this command produces no output other than error-messages.

so if you're staring at your terminal waiting for a lil confirmation message?? it's not coming. silence IS the confirmation. iconic behaviour honestly. 🀫


πŸ“ EXAMPLES πŸ“

the following command starts collecting statistics:

% fs rxstatproc -enable

and then... nothing prints. and that's correct. you're welcome. πŸ’œ


πŸ‘‘ PRIVILEGE REQUIRED πŸ‘‘

the issuer must be logged in as the local superuser root.

no root, no stats. that's the rule, bestie. πŸ™ˆ
