The nscollect utility retrieves n number of entity counters and creates the entity database. If the first n counters change in the subsequent fetch, the database stores more than n entries for that entity type. However, you need to delete the unused entity counters manually.

Note: The Reporting tool supports only numerical counters.

By default, nscollect retrieves data at every 5-minute interval. Data is maintained in 5-minute granularity for one day, hourly for the last 30 days, and daily for three years.

When you start the NetScaler, the nscollect utility automatically starts. However, if data is not updated accurately, or there is corrupted data displayed in the reports, you can stop and then restart the utility. You may also want to stop nscollect to back up the databases or to create a new data source.

To stop nscollect

At a NetScaler command prompt, type the following:

/netscaler/nscollect stop

You can start nscollect on either the local system or a remote system.
