Introduction

This chapter describes the Quota Manager (QM) command-line utility (CLU).

Quota Manager CLU Description

The QM CLU (p3qm) displays the Cisco Service Control Quota Manager configuration, status, and statistics. The command format is p3qm <operation>. Table 4-1 lists the p3qm operations.

Table 4-1 p3qm Operations
Operation	Description
--show-config [--package packageId]	Displays all the Cisco Service Control Quota Manager profiles. To display only a certain profile, use the --package option.
--show-quota -s subscriber name [--detail]	Displays the quota status of a specific subscriber. To specify a subscriber name, use the -s option. To display each slice period detail for the subscriber consumption, add the --detail tag. For configuration with multiple Cisco SCEs enabled, displays the Cisco SCE details that reported the quota.
--show-statistics [-n/--ne-name=NAME]	Displays counters of Cisco Service Control Quota Manager messages handled. To display the statistics of a specific Cisco SCE, use the -n option.
--show-connections [-n/--ne-name=NAME]	Displays all the Cisco SCE connections to the Cisco Service Control Quota Manager along with their connection status. Use the -n option to display the connection status of a specific Cisco SCE.
--show-subs-in-breach [-q/--quota-profile=QUOTA-PROFILE-NAME]	Displays all the subscribers that are currently breached. If the --quota-profile option is used, this command displays the subscribers that are in breach and belong to a certain quota profile.
--show-subs-in-penalty [-q/--quota-profile=QUOTA-PROFILE-NAME]	Displays all the subscribers that are currently in penalty. If the --quota-profile option is used, this command displays the subscribers that are in penalty and belong to a certain quota profile.
--set-quota -s subscriber name -b/--bucket bucket ID=bucket value	Sets the quota for a specific bucket of a subscriber. After the quota is set, the Cisco Service Control Quota Manager initiates a remaining quota RDR¹ from the Cisco SCE. Therefore, if the subscriber was breached, the new quota is available immediately.
--add-quota -s subscriber name -b/--bucket bucket ID=bucket value	Adds quota to a specific bucket of a subscriber. After the quota is added, the Cisco Service Control Quota Manager initiates a remaining quota RDR from the Cisco SCE. Therefore, if the subscriber was breached, the new quota is available immediately.
--replenish-quota -s subscriber name	Replenishes the quota buckets for a specific subscriber without starting a new aggregation period. To specify the subscriber name, use the -s option. Use this CLU in cases when it is required to bypass the Quota Manager internal replenishment logic.
--get-quota -s subscriber name [--detail]	Triggers a remaining quota indication to be sent from the Cisco SCE² for a specific subscriber. To specify the subscriber name, use the -s option. To display each slice period detail for the subscriber consumption, add the --detail tag. After using this CLU, the output is the same as the show-quota CLU. However, after using this get-quota CLU, the quota manager is up-to-date with the Cisco SCE and so the displayed information is the latest available. Use this CLU if the quota dosage is large and the rate of the remaining quota indications is low.
--enable-logging -s subscriber name	Debugs or troubleshoots. It adds all quota events and quota provisions that are related to a specific subscriber to the user log. To specify the subscriber name, use the -s option. There is no output from this CLU.
--disable-logging -s subscriber name	Disables logging of quota events and quota provisions that are related to a specific subscriber to the user log. To specify the subscriber name, use the -s option. There is no output from this CLU.
--reset-statistics [-n/--ne-name=NAME]	Resets counters of Cisco Service Control Quota Manager messages handled. To reset the counters of a specific Cisco SCE, use the -n option.
--help	Displays a list of available operations and arguments, with a short explanation of their meanings.

¹RDR = Raw Data Record.

²SCE = Service Control Engine.

Viewing the SCE Connections

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the show-connections command:

> p3qm --show-connections

sce1 (10.56.217.81): connected

sce2 (10.56.217.82): not connected

Command terminated successfully

Viewing the Breached Subscribers

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the show-breached-subs command:

> p3qm --show-subs-in-breach [-q/--quota-profile=QUOTA-PROFILE-NAME]

Subscriber1

Subscriber2

Subscriber3

Subscriber4

Subscriber5

System found 5 subscribers

Command terminated successfully

Viewing the Subscribers in Penalty

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the show-subs-in-penalty command:

> p3qm --show-subs-in-penalty [-q/--quota-profile=QUOTA-PROFILE-NAME]

Subscriber1

Subscriber2

Subscriber3

Subscriber4

Subscriber5

System found 5 subscribers

Command terminated successfully

Setting Subscriber Quota

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the set-quota command:

> p3qm --set-quota -s sub1 -b 1=1000,2=2000

Command terminated successfully

This command sets the sub1 quota bucket 1 to 1000 and quota bucket 2 to 2000.

Adding to Subscriber Quota

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the add-quota command:

> p3qm --add-quota -s sub1 -b 1=1000,2=2000

Command terminated successfully

This command adds 1000 to the sub1 quota bucket 1 and 2000 to the sub1 quota bucket 2.

Replenishing Subscriber Quota

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the replenish-quota command:

> p3qm --replenish-quota -s subscriber name

Quota was replenished:

Bucket 1: 1000

Bucket 2: 500

Command terminated successfully

Getting Subscriber Quota

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the get-quota command:

> p3qm --get-quota -s subscriber name

Quota status was sent from SCE:

Package ID = 1

Last SCE that consumed quota = 10.56.217.81

Aggregation Period:

Last Replenish Time = Thu Aug 17 15:41:23 IDT 2006

Aggregation Period End = Fri Aug 18 00:00:00 IDT 2006

Quota Buckets:

Bucket 1 - Remaining Quota 495 (Last quota reported by SCE is 5)

Bucket 2 - Remaining Quota 1000 (Last quota reported by SCE is 10)

Command terminated successfully

The get-quota command is different from the show-quota command in that it requests the SCE to send a remaining quota indication, waits for the response, and displays the quota. The show-quota command displays the quota without getting the latest update from the SCE. Therefore, the get-quota command gives more accurate results.

Enabling Logging on a Subscriber

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the enable-logging command:

> p3qm --enable-logging -s subscriber name

Command terminated successfully

Disabling Logging on a Subscriber

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the disable-logging command:

> p3qm --disable-logging -s subscriber name

Command terminated successfully

Resetting Statistics

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the reset-statistics command:

> p3qm --reset-statistics [-n/--ne-name=NAME]

Command terminated successfully

Obtaining Help

The following example shows the p3qm CLU using the help command:

> p3qm --help
