NAME
       cnfsstat - Show usage of CNFS buffers

SYNOPSIS
       cnfsstat [-ahpPsv] [-c class] [-l [seconds]] [-m buffer]

DESCRIPTION
       cnfsstat reads pathetc/cycbuff.conf and pathetc/storage.conf to determine which CNFS buffers are available.  It then reads the specified
       cyclic buffers and shows their usage status.  cnfsstat can be invoked from rc.news if docnfsstat is set to true in inn.conf, and the result
       is written to syslog(3).

OPTIONS
       -a  Besides its usual output, cnfsstat prints the age of the oldest article in the cycbuff.  You may also want to use the -v flag to see
	   extended consistency checks.

       -c class
	   Only information for the specified class is printed.

       -h  Print usage information and exit.

       -l [seconds]
	   With this option, cnfsstat prints a status snapshot every seconds, and only exits if an error occurs.  When unspecified, the default
	   interval is 600 seconds.

	   At each iteration, cnfsstat checks whether the cycbuff.conf and storage.conf files have been modified, and loads the new configuration
	   if needed.

       -m buffer
	   Print information about the specified buffer in a format suitable for MRTG.

       -p  Print an MRTG config file.

       -P  Write PID into pathrun/cnfsstat.pid.

       -s  Write output to syslog(3) instead of standard output.

       -v  Write additional information, especially about consistency checks for article storage and the history file.
