numpty .m, .b,
.l, .f
NPTY
Number of pseudo-terminals. For example,
ssh session, screen, xterm application
consumes pseudo-terminal resource.
numsiginfo .m, .b,
.l, .f
NSIGINFO
Number of siginfo structures (essentially
this parameter limits size of signal delivery
queue).
tcpsndbuf .m, .b,
.l, .f
TCPSNDB
Total size (in bytes) of send buffers for TCP
sockets – amount of kernel memory allocated
for data sent from an application to a TCP
socket, but not acknowledged by the remote
side yet.
tcprcvbuf .m, .b,
.l, .f
TCPRCVB
Total size (in bytes) of receive buffers for
TCP sockets. Amount of kernel memory
received from the remote side but not read by
the local application yet.
othersockb .m, .b,
.l, .f
OTHSOCKB
Total size in bytes of UNIX-domain socket
buffers, UDP and other datagram protocol
send buffers.
dgramrcvbuf .m, .b,
.l, .f
DGRAMRCVB
Total size in bytes of receive buffers of UDP
and other datagram protocols.
nothersock .m, .b,
.l, .f
NOTHSOCK
Number of socket other than TCP. Local
(UNIX-domain) sockets are used for
communications inside the system. UDP
sockets are used for Domain Name Service
(DNS) queries, for example.
dcachesize .m, .b,
.l, .f
DCACHESIZE
Total size in bytes of dentry and inode
structures locked in memory. Exists as a
separate parameter to impose a limit causing
file operations to sense memory shortage and
return an error to applications, protecting
from excessive consumption of memory due
to intensive file system operations.
numfile .m, .b,
.l, .f
NFILE
Number of files opened by all VPS processes.
numiptent .m, .b,
.l, .f
NIPTENT
The number of IP packet filtering entries.
diskspace .s, .h DQBLOCKS
Total size of disk space consumed by VPS, in
1 Kb blocks. When the space used by a
Virtual Private Server hits the barrier, the
VPS can allocate additional disk space up to
the limit during grace period.
diskinodes .s, .h DQINODES
Total number of disk inodes (files, directories,
symbolic links) a Virtual Private Server can
allocate. When the number of inodes used by
a Virtual Private Server hits the barrier, the
VPS can create additional file entries up to
the limit during grace period.
laverage
none
LAVERAGE
The average number of processes ready to run
during the last 1, 5 and 15 minutes.
