vsx resctrl

Description

Shows and configures the CPU Resource Control.

Note - You must enable VSX Virtual System Extension. Check Point virtual networking solution, hosted on a computer or cluster with virtual abstractions of Check Point Security Gateways and other network devices. These Virtual Devices provide the same functionality as their physical counterparts. Resource Control Monitoring (vsx resctrl monitor enable) to see data about CPU usage for each Virtual System Virtual Device on a VSX Gateway or VSX Cluster Member that implements the functionality of a Security Gateway. Acronym: VS. over SNMP.

Syntax

Parameters

Parameter	Description
`--help`	Shows the built-in usage.
`-d stat`	Shows CPU consumption for each Virtual Device Logical object that emulates the functionality of a type of physical network object. Virtual Device can be on of these: Virtual Router, Virtual System, or Virtual Switch. - raw information including CPU ticks (but only after 24 hours of active monitoring)
`-d -q stat`	Shows CPU consumption for each Virtual Device - raw information without header line (but only after 24 hours of active monitoring).
`-u stat`	Shows CPU consumption for each Virtual Device - for each CPU core.
`load_configuration`	Initializes Resource Control from the `$FWDIR/conf/resctrl` file.
`monitor`	Manages the Resource Control Monitor: `disable` - Disables the Resource Control Monitor `enable` - Enables the Resource Control Monitor `show` - Shows the current Resource Control Monitor status
`reset`	Resets the Resource Control Monitor statistics.
`stop`	Stops the Resource Control Monitor.

Return Values

0 (zero) indicates that the command executed successfully.
Any other value indicates an error.

Notes

For systems with more than one CPU, time is an average for all CPUs.

To see the usage for each Virtual Device per CPU, run the vsx resctrl -u stat command.
Total Virtual System CPU Usage includes the total for all Virtual Devices: Virtual Routers, Virtual Switches, Virtual Systems and the VSX Gateway Physical server that hosts VSX virtual networks, including all Virtual Devices that provide the functionality of physical network devices. It holds at least one Virtual System, which is called VS0..

Example 1

[Expert@MyChassis-ch0x-0x:0]# vsx resctrl -d stat

This option will be active only after 24 hours of monitoring

Monitoring active time: 2 minutes 11 seconds
