1 Here's something that Paul Blackman sent me that may be useful:
4 I created this script to do a few things that smbstatus doesn't at the
5 moment. Perhaps you might want to include these. Sorry I haven't
6 added things at source level, script was quick&easy.
12 else if ($1 == "-c") then
13 echo There are `smbstatus -p |sort -u |grep -n -v z |grep -c :` unique smbd processes running.
14 else if ($1 == "-l") then
15 echo `date '+ %d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S'` `smbstatus -p |sort -u |grep -n -v z |grep -c :` >>$2
16 else if ($1 == "-cs") then
17 echo There are `smbstatus |awk '$1==share {n++;} END {print n}' share=$2` concurrent connections to share: $2
18 else if ($1 == "-csl") then
19 echo `date '+ %d/%m/%y %H:%M:%S'` `smbstatus |awk '$1==share {n++;} END {print n}' share=$2` >>$3
21 echo "'smbstat -c' ==> Count unique smbd processes."
22 echo "'smbstat -p' ==> List unique smbd processes."
23 echo "'smbstat -l logfile' ==> Append a log entry for the number of"
24 echo " concurrent and unique processes to logfile."
25 echo "'smbstat -cs sharename'"
26 echo " ==> Count processes connected to sharename (assumed unique)"
27 echo "'smbstat -csl sharename logfile'"
28 echo " ==> Append a log entry for the number of concurrent"
29 echo " processes connected to sharename (assumed unique)"
33 Run this script from cron eg.
35 0,5,10,15,20,25,30,35,40,50,55 * * * * /usr/local/samba/bin/smbstat -l /usr/local/samba/var/smbdcount.log
37 and you get a good idea of usage over time.
