iStats from irule

Hi Jerm1020,

you could use one of the below outlined ways to view/export your collected ISTATS.

1.) Write an Out-of-Band iRule to query and display your collected counters within an HTML page.

Collect Data within production iRule:

ISTATS::incr "my_key_space my_key_instance counter my_counter_name" 1 

Report Data within Out-of-Band iRule:

HTTP::respond 200 content "Counter Value [ISTATS::get "my_key_space my_key_instance counter my_counter_name"]"

2.) Use the TMSH client to view your object orientated ISTATS counters (special naming convention required)

Collect Data within production iRule:

ISTATS::incr "ltm.virtual MY_VirtualServer counter my_hit_count" 1

Report Data within TMSH:

(tmos) show ltm virtual MY_VirtualServer

------------------------------------------------------------------
Ltm::Virtual Server: MY_VirtualServer
------------------------------------------------------------------



User-defined  Value
  my_hit_count  12

Cheers, Kai
