cnfprfparam
Configure Profiler Parameters—AXSM, AXSM-E, AXSM-32-T1E1-E, AXSM-XG
Use the cnfprfparam to configure the interval at which the profiler facility is monitored. At the end of
the specified interval, a file containing profiler statistics is generated and transferred to the Cisco WAN
Manager (CWM) via FTP.
The profiler facility collects and displays statistics from resource usage. The resources include:
• Message queue
• Memory usage
• Memory chunks
Caution The profiler is a facility intended for developers at Cisco Systems. Because of the possibly large CPU
overhead involved with the profiler, using dspprf on an overloaded switch can have unpredictable and
unacceptable consequences. For example, it could overwhelm a marginally functioning switch. For this
reason, you should contact the TAC before using dspprf and never run it for exploratory or experimental
reasons. For a safer look at system resources, use the Resource Monitoring commands (cnfrmrsrc,
dsprmalms, dsprmrsrc, dsprmrsrcs, and dsprminfo) or the dspprfhist command.
