Chapter 1 Managing the CSS Software Showing CSS Configurations Showing System Resources Use the show system-resources command to display information about the size of the installed memory and free memory available on the: • CSS 11501. • CSS 11503 or CSS 11506 SM and SCM module. The CSS displays system resources for the primary SCM. To view a specific slot in the CSS, use the show system-resources slot_number command. Enter a number to specify the slot number (slot_number) in the CSS. Note Issuing the show system-resources command can cause CSS CPU usage to increase. If the CSS 11503 or 11506 has multiple modules installed, using this command increases CPU usage accordingly. The increased CPU usage is a direct result of the computational overhead that occurs when the CSS polls the modules and calculates CPU usage. Table 1-7 describes the fields in the show system-resources command output. Table 1-7 Field Descriptions for the show system-resources Command Field Installed Memory Free Memory CPU Buffer Statistics Buffer Pool Size Total Available Failures Low Buffer Count Description The total memory size in the CSS The amount of free memory available The utilized percentage of the CPU The buffer pool index The size, in bytes, of each data buffer in the buffer pool The total number of buffers in the buffer pool The current number of available buffers in the buffer pool The number of failures to obtain a buffer from the buffer pool The lowest recorded number of available buffers OL-5647-02 Cisco Content Services Switch Administration Guide 1-43
