imsimta counters

The MTA accumulates message traffic counters for each of its active channels. These statistics, referred to as channel counters, are kept in shared memory. The imsimta counters command manipulates these counters.

Syntax


imsimta counters -clear

imsimta counters -create [-max_channels=value]

imsimta counters -delete

imsimta counters -show [-associations | -noassociations] [-channels |
-nochannels] [-headers | -noheaders] [-output=file_spec]

Options

The options for this command are:

Option  

Description  

-associations |-noassociations

Specifies whether or not to show the in-memory cache of association counters. The -associations option is the default. This option is only used with the -show option.

-channels |-nochannels

Specifies whether or not to show the in-memory cache or channel counters. The -channels option is the default. This option is only used with the -show option.

-clear

The -clear command clears the in-memory channel counters.

-create

Creates the in-memory channel counters. Counters are not created by default. You must create the counters if you wish to use them. You must create them after restarting the MTA as well. 

-headers |-noheaders

-max_channels=value

By default, the in-memory channel counters can hold information for CHANNEL_TABLE_SIZE channels. CHANNEL_TABLE_SIZE is the value specified by the MTA option file option of the same name. Use the -max_channels=value option to select a different size. This option is used only with the -create option.

-delete

Deletes the in-memory channel counters. 

-show

-output=file_spec

Directs the output to the specified file. By default, the output appears on your display. This option is only used with the -show option.
