A network engineer runs the following command:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s nsdebug_pe=1 -d oldconmsg
What is the engineer trying to check in the log?

A.
Bandwidth information

B.

Some of this probably duplicates my original post…. here’s some bits stolen from the Netscaler Advanced
course…..
Enter the following command in the shell to trim a newnslog file:
nsconmsg -K input_file -s time=DDMMMYYYY:HH:MM -k output_file -T seconds -d copy
Command example:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s time=19Jan2009:17:00 -k slice1_newnslog -T 3600 -d copy
This command writes newnslog entries from 5pm-6pm in the slice1_newnslog file.
Enter the following command in the shell to view the time span of the current newnslog file:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -d setime
Enter the following command in the shell to display event information, such as entity up/down, alerts and
configuration saves:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -d event
Enter the following command in the shell to view console messages, which include IP address conflicts and
duplex mismatch, in the current newnslog file:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -d consmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to display memory utilization:
nsconmsg -s -K /var/nslog/newnslogConMEM=1 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to display bandwidth information:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s nsdebug_pe=1 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to display load-balancing information:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s ConLb=1 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to view SSL stats for front-end connections:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s ConSSL=1 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to view SSL stats for back-end connections:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s ConSSL=2 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to view SSL stats for front- and back-end connections:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s ConSSL=3 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to display monitoring statistics:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog –s ConMon=x –d oldconmsg
This command gives basic information when x=1 and gives detailed information when x=2.
Enter the following command in the shell to display content switching statistics:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog –s ConCSW=1 -d oldconmsg
Enter the following command in the shell to view all non-zero totals in the current newnslog file:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -d statswt0 | more
Enter the following command in the shell to view the average rates in the current newnslog file:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog –d current | more
Use -g to grep for specific counters of interest. For example:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -g cpu -d statswt0 | more
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -g arp –d current | more
Enter following command in the shell to display CPU usage in the shell:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -s totalcount=200 -g cpu_use -d current
Enter the following command in the shell to display NIC information:
nsconmsg -K /var/nslog/newnslog -g nic -d current
And watch out for the parameters: a “-k” and a “-K” (lower- vs upper-case) have VERY different meanings!!!!
For example the UPPERcase “-K” refers to an input file, whilst the lowercase “-k” refers to an output file.
Getting them wring could mean over-writing your log file!!! Ooops!
