A user asked about opportunities to get CRC/Dropped Packets or port flapping type stats for Netscaler/Hypervisors in the ControlUP console. These metrics are pulled from the hypervisor per VM, but this may not be an option for Nutanix/AHV as it may not be exposed by the Prism API. Drop packets are only available from the hypervisor itself.

Any possible opportunities/use cases to get CRC/Dropped Packets or port flapping type stats for Netscaler/Hypervisors section of ControlUP console? Or is this located somewhere else that I’m unaware of?
Dropped packet data is pulled from the hypervisor on a per VM basis. If your NetScalers are hosted there you should be able to see these metrics.
what about for the actual hypervisor, like a vmware host or nutanix host
thats the default preset right? Does it show NIC Usage 0 on yours? if using SFPs/25gb fiber,w ould that still show up under NIC?
Ohh man, my presets are so changed over the years so I have no clue. Just go to Manage Columns up top and search for them.
im seeing thoes under teh default preset column, but nic usage shows 0, so just wondering if the dropped columns are saying 0, b/c there is 0 usage
Yeah, not sure there. What hypervisor?
nutanix/ahv
I’m not sure we have that for AHV.
At least not in the internal documentation I’m looking at.
It might not be something exposed by the prism API. :man-shrugging:
doesn’t look like the ADC area shows the dropped packets either, maybe you just expose that from the hypervisor. Can’t see it on the VPX or SDX side
Drop packets is only from the hypervisor.
thx for checking
