Manually Gathering and Transferring Bulk Statistics
There may be times where it is necessary to gather and transfer bulk statistics outside of the scheduled intervals.
The system provides commands that allow you to manually initiate the gathering and transferring of bulk
statistics.
To manually initiate the gathering of bulk statistics outside of the configured sampling interval, enter the
following Exec mode command:
bulkstats force gather
To manually initiate the transferring of bulk statistics prior to reaching the of the maximum configured storage
limit, enter the following Exec mode command:
bulkstats force transfer
Clearing Bulk Statistics Counters and Information
It may be necessary to periodically clear counters pertaining to bulk statistics in order to gather new information
or to remove bulk statistics information that has already been collected. The following Exec mode command
can be used to perform either of these functions:
clear bulkstats { counters | data }
The
clear bulkstats data
command clears any accumulated data that has not been transferred. This includes
any "completed" files that have not been successfully transferred.
Bulkstats Schema Nomenclature

command"
•
Counter:
A counter records incremental data cumulatively and rolls over when the counter limit is
reached.
•
All counter statistics are cumulative and reset only by one of the following methods: roll-over
when the limit is reached, after a system restart, or after a clear command is performed.
•
The limit depends upon the data type.
•
Gauge:
A gauge statistic indicates a single value; a snapshot representation of a single point in time
within a defined time frame. The gauge changes to a new value with each snapshot though a value may
repeat from one period to the next. The limit depends upon the data type.
•
Information:
This type of statistic provides information, often intended to differentiate sets of statistics;
for example, a VPN name or IP address. The type of information provided depends upon the data type.
