Bucket Parameter

The following performance buckets are predefined in Proxy Server:

• The default-bucket records statistics for the functions not associated with any user-defined or built-in bucket.

• The all-requests bucket records .perf statistics for all NSAPI SAFs, including SAFs in the default-bucket.

You can define additional performance buckets in the magnus.conf file. For more information, see the descriptions of the perf-init and define-perf-bucket functions.

You can measure the performance of any SAF in obj.conf by adding a bucket=bucket-name parameter to the function, for example, bucket=cache-bucket.

To list the performance statistics, use the service-dump Service function.

As an alternative, you can use the stats-xml Service function to generate performance statistics. Use of buckets is optional.

For more information about performance buckets, see Oracle iPlanet Web Proxy Server 4.0.14 Administration Guide.
