37 <P><STRONG>Description</STRONG>
38 <P>The <B>kas statistics</B> command displays statistics from the
39 Authentication Server running on one of the cell's database server
40 machines. Use the <B>-servers</B> argument to name a specific
41 machine, or the command interpreter chooses one at random from all the
42 database server machines with which it has established connections.
43 <P><STRONG>Cautions</STRONG>
44 <P>The <B>-servers</B> argument is not available in interactive mode,
45 making it impossible to specify a certain machine.
46 <P><STRONG>Options</STRONG>
48 <P><DT><B>-admin_username
49 </B><DD>Specifies the user identity under which to authenticate with the
50 Authentication Server for execution of the command. For more details,
51 see the introductory <B>kas</B> reference page.
52 <P><DT><B>-password_for_admin
53 </B><DD>Specifies the password of the command's issuer. If it is
54 omitted (as recommended), the <B>kas</B> command interpreter prompts for
55 it and does not echo it visibly. For more details, see the introductory
56 <B>kas</B> reference page.
58 </B><DD>Names the cell in which to run the command. For more details, see
59 the introductory <B>kas</B> reference page.
61 </B><DD>Names each machine running an Authentication Server with which to
62 establish a connection. For more details, see the introductory
63 <B>kas</B> reference page.
65 </B><DD>Assigns the unprivileged identity <B>anonymous</B> to the
66 issuer. For more details, see the introductory <B>kas</B> reference
69 </B><DD>Prints the online help for this command. All other valid options
72 <P><STRONG>Output</STRONG>
73 <P>The information in the output includes:
75 <P><LI>The number of allocation and freeing operations the Authentication Server
76 has performed, and how many password change requests it has processed.
77 <P><LI>An indication of its hash table use.
78 <P><LI>The server machine's IP address in hexadecimal and the date when the
79 current instance of the Authentication Server started.
80 <P><LI>The number of requests and aborted requests for various services:
81 authentication, ticket granting, password setting, entry listing, and so
83 <P><LI>The amount of CPU time that the Authentication Server has used to process
84 requests since it started. The amount is not accurate on all system
86 <P><LI>The number of entries in the Authentication Database that are marked with
87 the <TT>ADMIN</TT> flag.
89 <P><STRONG>Examples</STRONG>
90 <P>In the following example, an administrator using the <B>admin</B>
91 account gathers statistics from the Authentication Server running on the
92 machine <B>fs1.abc.com</B>.
93 <PRE> % <B>kas statistics -servers fs1.abc.com</B>
94 56 allocs, 46 frees, 0 password changes
95 Hash table utilization = 0.100000%
