Each snapshot is composed of a structure (ctGSMS for system info, ctGUMS for user info and ctGFMS for file info) followed optionally by a variable region. Each of the three snapshot structures contains information about the size of the structure and the amount of variable information, if any, following the structure. Further, if the output buffer is too small to hold all the variable information, the contents member of the main structure will have the ctSNAPSHOTtruncated bit turned on if information had to be truncated.
Note: These structure definitions may vary depending on the version of the FairCom Server and FairCom DB SDK you are using. Please consult the c-tree headers for the actual structure definition that is in use. Differences in definitions between a given ctstat client and FairCom Server may make ctstat incompatible with that server, in which case the ctstat utility displays an error message indicating structure incompatibility.
The only variable information consists of an array of function timing results for the overall system or for a user. The array is composed of ctWRKSTT structures. Function timings are described below, but these timings are only for direct calls from c-tree clients.
Most of the elapsed times accumulated in the snapshots are based on high-resolution timers that report in numbers of ticks and are stored in eight-byte integers. The description following each structure member contains a ‘^’ to indicate results based on high-resolution timers. To convert such times to seconds, divide by the ticks per second, a system dependent value stored in the scthrbastim member of each snapshot structure.
