Responses
Responses contain the following information:
| Stat | Value |
|---|---|
|
The key’s current cas value, as a decimal integer. |
|
Expiration time from the epoch, as a decimal integer. |
|
Flags for this key, as a decimal integer. |
|
If the value is not yet persisted. |
|
If the value is resident in memory. |
|
See the description below. |
|
The vBucket state of this key. |
Note that key_valid can have any of the following values:
-
this_is_a_bug. An error has occurred. -
dirty. The value in memory has not been persisted yet. -
length_mismatch. The key length in memory does not match the length on the disk. -
data_mismatch. The data in memory does not match the data on disk. -
flags_mismatch. The flags in memory do not match the flags on disk. -
valid. The key is both on disk and in memory. -
ram_but_not_disk. The value does not yet exist on disk. -
item_deleted. The item has been deleted.
Examples: Find vBucket IDs
Using cbc-hash, the following call searches for the vBucket ID that corresponds to the key airline_10; which is provided by default, in the sample bucket travel-sample:
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbc-hash airline_10 \ -U couchbase://localhost/travel-sample \ -u Administrator -P password
The response is as follows:
airline_10: [vBucket=361, Index=0] Server: localhost:11210, CouchAPI: http://localhost:8092/travel-sample
The response thus indicates that the document with the key airline_10 resides in the vBucket whose id is 361.
The following call searches for the key of a custom-created document, saved by the administrator in the sample bucket travel-sample:
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbc-hash newTestDoc \ -U couchbase://localhost/travel-sample \ -u Administrator -P password
The response is as follows:
newTestDoc: [vBucket=4, Index=0] Server: localhost:11210, CouchAPI: http://localhost:8092/travel-sample
The response thus indicates that the document with the key newTestDoc resides in the vBucket whose id is 4.
Examples: Get Key Information
Key information can be retrieved either by specifying the bucket; or by additionally specifying either a collection or both a scope and a collection, within the bucket.
Get Key Information, Specifying Bucket
The following call requests information on the key airline_10, contained in the vBucket whose id is 361:
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbstats -u Administrator -p password \ -b travel-sample localhost:11210 \ key 'airline_10' 361
The response is as follows:
key airline_10 361 stats for key airline_10 key_cas: 1601426228785053696 key_exptime: 0 key_flags: 100663298 key_is_dirty: false key_is_resident: true key_vb_state: active
Get Key Information, Specifying Bucket, Scope, and Collection
The following example requests information on the key airline_10, which is provided by default in the sample bucket travel-sample.
The call uses the <scope>.<collection> option, to specify that the default scope and collection should be searched:
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbstats -u Administrator -p password \ -b travel-sample localhost:11210 \ key 'airline_10' 361 _default._default
The response is as follows:
key airline_10 361 _default._default stats for key airline_10 key_cas: 1601426228785053696 key_exptime: 0 key_flags: 100663298 key_is_dirty: false key_is_resident: true key_vb_state: active
The following example, again using the <scope>.<collection> option, requests information on the key newTestDoc, contained in the administrator-created collection MyCollection; which is in the administrator-created scope MyScope, in the travel-sample bucket.
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbstats -u Administrator -p password \ -b travel-sample localhost:11210 \ key 'newTestDoc' 4 MyScope.MyCollection
The response is as follows:
key newTestDoc 4 MyScope.MyCollection stats for key newTestDoc key_cas: 1602139598762409984 key_exptime: 0 key_flags: 100663298 key_is_dirty: false key_is_resident: true key_vb_state: active
Get Key Information, Specifying Collection ID
The following example requests information on the key airline_10, which is provided by default in the sample bucket travel-sample.
The call uses the id <collectionID> option, to specify that the default collection should be searched:
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbstats -u Administrator -p password \ -b travel-sample localhost:11210 \ key 'airline_10' 361 id 0x0
The response is as follows:
key-byid airline_10 361 0x0 stats for key airline_10 key_cas: 1601426228785053696 key_exptime: 0 key_flags: 100663298 key_is_dirty: false key_is_resident: true key_vb_state: active
The following example, again using the id <collectionID> option, requests information on the key newTestDoc, contained in the administrator-created collection MyCollection, in the travel-sample bucket.
/opt/couchbase/bin/cbstats -u Administrator -p password \ -b travel-sample localhost:11210 \ key 'newTestDoc' 4 id 0x9
The response is as follows:
key-byid newTestDoc 4 0x9 stats for key newTestDoc key_cas: 1602139598762409984 key_exptime: 0 key_flags: 100663298 key_is_dirty: false key_is_resident: true key_vb_state: active
