Exporting Statistics Data; Binary File Format - Cisco ASR 9000 Serie Configuration Manuals

PM Statistics Collection Overview
Data collection will begin one sampling cycle after you enable the PM statistics collection template with
Note
the performance-mgmt enable statistics command.
• Once a template has been enabled, the sampling and export cycles continue until the template is disabled
with the no form of the performance-mgmt apply statistics command.
• You must specify either a location with the location keyword and node-id argument or the location all
keywords when enabling or disabling a PM statistic collections for the following entities:
The location keyword with the node-id argument enables the PM statistic collections for the specified
node. The node-id argument is expressed in the rack/slot/module notation. The location all keywords
enable the PM statistic collections for all nodes.
• Because only one PM statistics collection can be enabled for any given entity at any given time, you are
not required to specify the template name with the default keyword or template keyword and
template-name argument when disabling a PM statistics collection.

Exporting Statistics Data

The current PM supports exporting of data onto the following:
• performance-mgmt resource tftp-server ip-address directory directory-name
• performance-mgmt resource dump local
You can dump PM statistics collections onto local filesystem, for example, /disk0: or /harddisk:. By default,
this location is not configured but PM automatically selects the location on the local filesystem. Or, you can
also configure a TFTP server for PM statistics collections and export the statistics data on the remote location.
Both the local and TFTP destinations are mutually exclusive and you can configure either one of them at
Note
a given time.
