SMS Standard Sender

The following counters pertain to SMS’s Standard Senders.

Average Bytes/sec

The average throughput of the sender (either to all sites or to the specified site).

Current Bytes being Sent

The current number of bytes that all sending threads are attempting to write, either to all sites or to the specified site.

Sending Thread Count

The number of threads currently sending to a destination. If the instance is _Total, this count is the total number of sending sessions targeted at all sites. If the instance is a specific site, this count is the number of sending threads sending to that specific site.

Total Bytes Attempted

The total number of bytes this sender has attempted to send since it began running. When a sending block error occurs and it is necessary to resend the block, both the failed and successful bytes are counted. Therefore, this count represents the total number of bytes consuming network bandwidth that this sender has been responsible for. When this counter is associated with a specific site instance, only the bytes sent to that site are counted.

Total Bytes Failed

The total number of bytes this sender failed to send, to either all sites or the specified site, since it began execution. This failure indicates that during the transfer of a block of data, the sender determined that the block did not arrive successfully at the destination site. The sender will retry sending that block.

Total Bytes Sent

The total number of bytes this sender successfully sent, either to all sites or to the specified site, since it began execution.
