.TH uurate 1
.SH NAME
uurate \- Report Taylor UUCP statistics
.SH SYNOPSIS
.BR uurate " [ " "\-cfexai" " ] [ " "\-h "
.I host
.RI " ] [ " "logfile..." " ] "
.PP
or simply,
.PP
.B uurate
.PP
for a traffic summary report.
.SH DESCRIPTION
The 
.I uurate
command provides tabular summary reports on the operation of the 
Taylor UUCP system. Data is taken from the currently active log
files, standard input, or from a list of log files given on the 
command line. Output is in the form of tabular reports summarizing 
call, file transfer, and command execution
.RI "("  "uuxqt" ")"
activity.
.PP
The log files given to
.I uurate
must be in the ``Taylor'' format. Also, note that call and file
transfer activities are logged in separate files, nominally called 
.I Log
and
.I Stats,
respectively. For reports to be meaningful, the
.I Log
and
.I Stats
files should be given to 
.I uurate
together, and cover the same time period.
.PP
If neither the
.B \-i
option nor any 
.I logfile
options are given, 
.I uurate
defaults to taking its input from the current Taylor
.I Log
and
.I Stats
files, as defined at compilation time.
This is the normal mode of operation.
.PP
The reporting options described below can be used to select
the set of reports desired. If no options are given, the
.B call
and
.B file
reports are displayed. If there is no relevant data for a particular
report or host, that report or host will be supressed.
.SH OPTIONS
The following options may be given to 
.I uurate:
.TP 5
.B \-c
Report on call statistics. Requires data from a
.I Log
file.
.TP 5
.B \-f
Report on file transfer statistics. Requires data from a
.I Stats
file.
.TP 5
.B \-e
Report on efficiency (total connect time versus time spent transferring
files). Requires data from both a
.I Log
and a
.I Stats
file, and they must span the same time period.
.TP 5
.B \-x
Report on remote execution requests (e.g.,
.IR rmail ")."
Requires data from a
.I Log
file.
.TP 5
.B \-a
All reports. Identical to
.B \-cfex.
.TP 5
.BI "\-h " "host"
Restrict report output to
.I host.
.SH "DESCRIPTION OF REPORTS"
There are four reports available: the call, file transfer, efficiency,
and remote execution reports. Each may be selected by a command line
option. All reports may be selected via the option
.B \-a.
If no report selection options are given, 
.I uurate
displays a compact traffic summary report (see below).
.SS "Summary report"
If no report options are given,
.I uurate
displays a traffic summary report. This is particularly useful in daily
.I cron
jobs which report on errors and the like. Traffic statistics for each
active system is reported on a single line. If more than one system was
active, a 'totals' line is included at the end of the report.
.SS "Call report"
The call report gives statistics on inbound and outbound calls for 
each active host system. The fields are described below:
.br
.nf
.in +.5i
.ta 1.0i
.BR "sysname	" "UUCP node name of neighbor host system"
.BR "callto	" "Outbound calls attempted to that system"
.BR "failto	" "Failed outbound calls to that system"
.BR "totime	" "Connect time (sec.) on outbound calls"
.BR "callfm	" "Inbound calls attempted by that system"
.BR "failfm	" "Failed inbound calls from that system"
.BR "fmtime	" "Connect time (sec.) on inbound calls"
.in -.5
.SS "File transfer reports"
The file transfer reports give statistics on inbound and 
outbound file transfers (regardless of which end initiated the transfer)
for each active host system. There are two reports, one for files
sent to the remote system and one for files received from the remote
system. The fields in each report are described below:
.br
.nf
.in +.5i
.ta 1.0i
.BR "sysname	" "UUCP node name of neighbor host system"
.BR "files	" "Number of files transferred"
.BR "bytes	" "Total size (bytes) of files transferred"
.BR "seconds	" "Total time (sec.) to transfer files"
.BR "byte/sec	" "Average transfer rate (bytes/sec)"
.in -.5
.SS "Efficiency report"
The efficiency report describes the utilization of the links
to each active remote system, giving the ratio of total connect time
to the time spent actually transferring files. 
The fields are described below:
.br
.nf
.in +.5i
.ta 1.0i
.BR "sysname	" "UUCP node name of neighbor host system"
.BR "conntime	" "Total connect time for that system"
.BR "flowtime	" "Total file transfer time for that system"
.BR "ovhdtime	" "Connect time not used to transfer files"
.BR "effcy (%)	" "Ratio of connect time to transfer time"
.in -.5
.SS "Remote execution report"
The remote execution report describes remotely
requested command executions from each active host system.
Executions of
.I rmail
and
.I rnews
are the most common, and are detailed separately. The fields
are described below:
.br
.nf
.in +.5i
.ta 1.0i
.BR "sysname	" "UUCP node name of neighbor host system"
.BR "rmail	" "Number of rmail requests from that system"
.BR "rnews	" "Number of rnews requests from that system"
.BR "other	" "Number of other requests from that system"
.in -.5i
.SS FILES
The file names below may be changed at compilation time or by the
configuration file, so these are only approximations.
.br
.nf
.in +.5in
.ta 2.0i
.IR "/usr/spool/uucp/Log	" "Taylor format call/execution log"
.IR "/usr/spool/uucp/Stats	" "Taylor format file transfer log"
.SS "SEE ALSO"
.IR uucico "(8)"
.SS BUGS
Does not understand older (V2, BNU) logging formats. Anyone care to
volunteer to add this? I don't use the stuff myself.
.PP
The entries that Taylor UUCP makes in the log file for incoming calls
don't have a host name. This confuses 
.I uurate 
into thinking that the calls came in for system "-". This may require 
a change to Taylor logging.
.PP
Should check the configuration file to locate the currently active 
.I Log
and
.I Stats
files when using them for default inputs. Instead, it uses the
compile-time settings only.
.PP
Should report packet protocol error statistics by host and
protocol type.
