      Hi,

      Is possible to know the number of times a reverse offload to database servers happen?

      Any statistic at cell or database node available?

       

      Thanks

      Arturo

          Hi, Arturo.

           

          cellsrvstat (on each individual cell) has a section for 'Reverse Offload related stats'. Ex:

           

          == Reverse Offload related stats ==
Number of Remote Nodes                            (I)          0              7
Number of Remote Instances                        (I)          0              8
Current Cell CPU utilization                      (I)          0              1
Number of requests                                (C)          0      31330706
Number of requests that were pushed              (C)          0        2085719
Average pushback rate for since last stat update  (I)          0              0
Average pushback rate for last 200 ms            (I)          0              0
Num of reqs not pushed due to low cell cpu        (C)          0      19360302
Num of reqs not pushed due to high cell outnet    (C)          0              0
Num of reqs not pushed due to high db node innet  (C)          0              0
Num rate increase by reverse offload info from db (C)          0          36398
Num rate decrease by reverse offload info from db (C)          0        316093
Num rate increases from db node cpu information  (C)          0          58745
Num rate decreases from db node cpu information  (C)          0          7437
Num rate decreases from low cell cpu utilization  (C)          0      552905618
Num rate decreases from high cell outnet util    (C)          0              0
Num rate decreases from high db node innet util  (C)          0              0

           

           

          Also, while not a "count", there is also the statistic 'cell physical IO bytes sent directly to DB node to balance CPU'.

          Hope this helps.

           

          Regards,

            Hi Geoff,

            Thanks for the reply.

             

            I've generated the report with Exawatcher.

            I think that this stats are the main:

            Num of reqs not pushed due to low cell cpu        (C)           0              0

            Num of reqs not pushed due to high cell outnet    (C)           0              0

            Num of reqs not pushed due to high db node innet  (C)           0              0

             

            Means, that no reverse offloading is ocurring.

             

            Thanks

            Arturo

              Hi, Arturo.

               

              As you probably noticed from the output I posted from cellsrvstat and what you posted with Exawatcher, cellssrvstat is one of the collectors for Exawatcher.

              Have a great day.
