NAME
show command - Displays statistics for and the status of specified components.
MODULE
All tmsh modules.
SYNTAX
Use the show command within a tmsh module to display statistics for and the status of components in that
module. To display statistics for and the status of components in another module, use the full path to the
component.
show
show [component]
show [component] [name]
show / [module] [component] [name]
options:
all-stats
current-module
(default | exa | gig | kil | meg | peta | raw | tera | yotta | zetta)
(detail | global | historical)

recursive
DESCRIPTION
You can use the show command to specify the unit value in which the system displays statistics and the type of
statistics that you want the system to display.
After you reset statistics, when you run the command show, you may see a value of nan. This stands for not a
number, which indicates that no data is currently available. Wait a few moments and run the show command
again, and in most cases the nan value is replaced by an integer value. For more information, see help reset-
stats.
EXAMPLES
show / ltm current-module
From within the gtm module, displays statistics and status for all the components within the ltm module, but
not the components in the ltm monitor, ltm persistence, and ltm profile modules.
show pool
From within the gtm module, displays statistics and status for all Global Traffic Manager pools.
show pool pool1
From within the gtm module, displays statistics and status for the Global Traffic Manager pool named pool1.
show / ltm pool
From within the gtm module, displays statistics and status for all Local Traffic Manager pools.
show / ltm profile tcp global
From within the gtm module, displays global statistics and status for all Local Traffic Manager TCP profiles
in the system default unit.
OPTIONS
all-stats
Displays all of the available system performance statistics.
component
Specifies the type of the component for which you want to show statistics and status.
current-module
Specifies to display only the components that reside in the specified module, not the components that
reside in the sub-modules of that module.
For example, from within the ltm module to display only the components in the gtm module, and not the
components in the gtm monitor and gtm settings sub-modules, use this command sequence: show / gtm
current-module.
default
Displays data in the simplest units. For example, if the value of the data is 1,200,001, the system
displays 1.20M; however, if the value of the data is 1,200, the system displays 1.2K.
detail
Displays detailed data for the specified component and associated components. Note that this option is
available for only a partial set of tmsh components.
You can use the tab completion and context-sensitive help features to determine if this option is
available. For more information about these features, see help.
field-fmt
Displays data as a list of options and their values. The option names can be used to retrieve statistics
and status values in a shell script, see cli script.
gig Displays data in parts per billion.
global
Displays global statistics for the specified component that includes statistics for all components of the
specified type. Note that this option is available for only a partial set of tmsh components. You can use
the tab completion and context-sensitive help features to determine if this option is available.
historical
Displays historical statistics for the specified component. Note that this option is available only for a
partial set of tmsh components. You can use the tab completion and context-sensitive help features to
determine if this option is available.
kil Displays data in parts per thousand.
lines
Specifies how many lines of the log that you want the system to display.
meg Displays data in parts per million.
module
Specifies the module within which the component for which you want to show statistics and status resides.
Note: When you use the command show at the module level, by default, the system does not display all of
the components that reside in the module. To display some components you must explicitly specify the
component. For example, from the ltm module, to display the statistics for and status of the virtual
addresses of the Local Traffic Manager, use the following command sequence:
show virtual-address
For more information about displaying statistics for and status of a component, see the man page for the
component.
name Specifies the unique name of the component for which you want to show statistics and status.
range
Specifies a date range for the logs that you want the system to display, for example:
2d-4d
Specifies 2 - 4 days ago.
3d Specifies 3 days ago to now.
epoch--7/25:12:00:00
Specifies everything older than July 25th at noon.
2008-07-25--2008-07-28:13:30
Specifies between July 25th and 28th at 1:30 p.m.
raw Displays raw data.
recursive
Specifies to display the components not only from the current folder, but also from all sub-folders
recursively.
running-config
Displays the running configuration of the components that you have permission to view within a tmsh
module, if the default Read partition is All. If you specify a Read partition, this option displays only
the components that you have permission to view in the current partition, all of the components that are
not in partitions, and all of the components in partition Common. Note that this option is valid only for
tmsh components you can configure.
The running-config option must be specified immediately after the show command, for example:
show running-config ltm pool
