Viewing Resource Usage - Cisco FirePOWER ASA 5500 series Configuration Manual

Chapter 6 Adding and Managing Security Contexts

Viewing Resource Usage

From the system execution space, you can view the resource usage for each context and display the
system resource usage.
From the system execution space, view the resource usage for each context by entering the following
command:
hostname# show resource usage [context context_name | top n | all | summary | system]
[resource {resource_name | all} | detail] [counter counter_name [count_threshold]]
By default, all context usage is displayed; each context is listed separately.
Enter the top n keyword to show the contexts that are the top n users of the specified resource. You must
specify a single resource type, and not resource all, with this option.
The summary option shows all context usage combined.
The system option shows all context usage combined, but shows the system limits for resources instead
of the combined context limits.
For the resource resource_name, see
type command. Specify all (the default) for all types.
The detail option shows the resource usage of all resources, including those you cannot manage. For
example, you can view the number of TCP intercepts.
The counter counter_name is one of the following keywords:
•
•
•
•
The count_threshold sets the number above which resources are shown. The default is 1. If the usage of
the resource is below the number you set, then the resource is not shown. If you specify all for the
counter name, then the count_threshold applies to the current usage.
To show all resources, set the count_threshold to 0.
Note
The following is sample output from the show resource usage context command, which shows the
resource usage for the admin context:
hostname# show resource usage context admin

The following is sample output from the show resource usage summary command, which shows the
resource usage for all contexts and all resources. This sample shows the limits for 6 contexts.
