Monitoring Statistics API Actions

This section describes the Monitoring Statistics API and the servlet actions it performs. The Monitoring Statistics API gets monitoring statistics data about a single Service Engine or all the Service Engines in a ECDS network. The Monitoring Statistics API is the MonitoringApiServlet.

Syntax

https://<cdsmIpAddress>:8443/servlet/com.cisco.unicorn.ui.MonitoringApiServlet...

This servlet performs one or more of the following actions:

•getSeStats

•getLocationStats

•getCdnStats

getSeStats

Obtains monitoring statistics information for the specified Service Engine.

Parameter

•Service Engine ID (required)—<SE_ID> entry in the form CeConfig_####

•Monitoring statistics type (required)

The monitoring statistics types are:

–bytes_served

–bandwidth_efficiency_gain

–streaming_sessions

–cpu_utilization

•Time frame (optional)—The time period over which monitoring statistics are obtained. The default is last_hour.

The options are:

–last_hour

–last_day

–last_week

–last_month

–custom

Note If you choose custom, you must specify the time frame using the End time from and End time to options.

•End time from (optional)—The date and time that collection of monitoring statistics data should start. You can specify only the date or the date and time. The date format is mm/dd/yyyy, and the time format is hh:mm. Optionally, you can specify the time in hh:mm:ss.

•End time to (optional)—The date and time that collection of monitoring statistics data should end. You can specify only the date or the date and time. The date format is mm/dd/yyyy, and the time format is hh:mm. Optionally, you can specify the time in hh:mm:ss.

•Time zone (optional)—The time zone used to generate the monitoring statistics data. The default is utc.

The time zones are:

–utc—Time in UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)

–se_local_time—Time zone specified on the Service Engine

–cdsm_local_time—Time zone specified on the CDSM

Return

Requested monitoring statistics data for the selected time period for the Service Engine.

Streaming Statistics API Actions

This section describes the Streaming Statistics API and the servlet actions it performs. The streaming statistics are collected from the ECDS network Service Engines and device groups and sent to the CDSM. The HTTP, Movie Streamer, WMT streaming and Flash Media Streaming statistical data is monitored and displayed in the CDSM for all Service Engines, all device groups, or all the Service Engines within a selected device group.

The Streaming Statistics API is the SprayerApiServlet. The CDSM must be running for the servlet to function.

Syntax

https://<cdsmIpAddress>:8443/servlet/com.cisco.unicorn.ui.SprayerApiServlet...

This servlet performs one or more of the following actions to collect statistics for each Service Engine (SE), device group (DG), or device group name for all the Service Engines in the specified device group:

•getHttp

•getMovieStreamer

•getWmt

getHttp

Collects HTTP streaming statistics data from the Service Engines and device groups and sends it to the CDSM.

Parameter

The SE keyword, DG keyword, or the name of the device group is required.

Return

Requested HTTP streaming statistics data for the Service Engines or device groups.

Syntax

https://<cdsmIpAddress>:8443/servlet/com.cisco.unicorn.ui.SprayerApiServlet?action=getHttp&
param=SE | DG | <DG_name>

getMovieStreamer

Collects Movie Streamer streaming statistics data from the Service Engines and device groups and sends it to the CDSM.

Parameter

The SE keyword, DG keyword, or the name of the device group is required.

Return

Requested Movie Streamer streaming statistics data for the Service Engines or device groups.

Syntax

https://<cdsmIpAddress>:8443/servlet/com.cisco.unicorn.ui.SprayerApiServlet?action=

Return

Requested WMT streaming statistics data for the Service Engines or device groups.

Syntax

https://<cdsmIpAddress>:8443/servlet/com.cisco.unicorn.ui.SprayerApiServlet?action=getWmt&
