spxinfo -- view SPX driver statistics

Synopsis

spxinfo [minor_number]

Description

Use spxinfo on the UnixWare command line to view statistics for the SPX driver identified by the specified minor number (in decimal).

Usage

If spxinfo is used without a minor number, the general statistics are displayed along with statistics for every minor number.

If a minor number is specified, then the general statistics are displayed along with the statistics only for the minor number specified.

The following example displays general information that spxinfo generates:

    SPXII General Statistics: 
     SPXII Version:  4.01 
   

6:56:17 Time SPX driver active 100 Maximum configured SPX connections 5 Current SPX connections 6 Maximum simultaneous SPX connections 0 Stream message allocation failures 212 Ioctls received from applications

284456 Stream messages sent to SPX from applications 1 Unknown messages sent to SPX from applications 0 Bad messages sent to SPX from applications 2 Connect requests received from applications 0 Connect requests from applications failed 6 Listens posted by applications 0 Listens posted by applications failed 3396032 SPX data packages sent to IPX 3712 SPX packets retransmitted due to timeouts 26 SPX packets retransmitted due to NAKs received

1423201 Packets received from IPX 0 Bad SPX packets received from IPX 0 Bad SPX data packets received from IPX 199 Duplicate SPX data packets received 572453 Packets received that were sent up to applications 2 Connect request packets received from IPX 0 Connect request received from IPX with no listeners 0 Connections aborted 0 Connections aborted due to max retries exceeded

The following screen shows connection statistics displayed for the SPX driver:
   SPX Connection Statistics for minor # 2:

9 TLI state of SPX connection 10 Maximum retries before disconnecting 310 Milliseconds minimum between retries

Connection is in a DATA TRANSFER State Connection with a SPXII endpoint Connection is NOT using IPX checksums 8 Current receive window size 8 Current transmit window size 1500 Current transmit packet size 1500 Current receive packet size 30 Milliseconds was last round trip time 0 Times transmit window was closed 1606 Times SPX could not transmit data due to flow control

534 Messages sent to SPX from application 0 Unknown messages sent to SPX from application 0 Bad messages sent to SPX from application

6397 Data packets sent to IPX from application 6 Data packets re-sent to IPX due to timeout 0 Data packets re-sent to IPX due to NAK received 1 ACK packets sent to IPX 0 NAK packets sent to IPX 0 Watchdog packets sent to IPX

1603 SPX packets received from IPX 0 Watchdog packets received from IPX 1601 SPX ACKs received from IPX 0 SPX NAKs received from IPX 0 Bad SPX packets received from IPX 0 Bad SPX data packets received from IPX 0 Duplicate SPX packets received 0 Out of sequence packets received 0 SPX packets sent up to application 0 Pckets queued due to flow control upstream

In the example, statistics are for minor number 2. Lines 36 through 40 and lines 44 through 53 are only displayed if there is a connection to a remote endpoint.
