Displays information about counters.
rs_helpcounter [{sysmon | duration | observer | monitor
| must_sample | no_reset | keep_old}
| module_name [, {short | long}] | keyword [, {short | long}]]
Specifies those counters most useful for assessing performance and for gathering replication system profile information.
Specifies all counters that measure duration with time intervals measured in one-hundedths of a second.
Specifies counters that record the number of times an event occurs. For example, the number of times a message is read from a queue.
Specifies counters that record a current value. For example, the size in bytes of the message most recently read from the queue.
Specifies counters that must keep sampling even if sampling is not turned on.
Specifies counters whose values are not reset when admin stats, reset is executed.
Specifies counters that keep both current and previous values.

How to Use rs_helpcounter
----------------------------------------------------------------
rs_helpcounter -> Shows module names and help.
rs_helpcounter [ sysmon | duration | observe | monitor
| must_sample | no_reset | keep_old ]
rs_helpcounter ModuleName [, {short | long }]
rs_helpcounter keyword [, { short | long }]
where “keyword” is part of the counter name, display name or description
(return status = 0)
Lists the display names, module names, and counter descriptions for the SQM Reader.
rs_helpcounter sqmr, short
Display Name Module Name Counter Description -------------- ------------ ------------------------------------------ BlocksRead SQMR Number of 16K blocks read from a stable queue by an SQM Reader thread. ClocksReadCached SQMR Number of 16K blocks from cache read by an SQM Reader thread. CmdsRead SQMR Commands read from a stable queue by an SQM Reader thread. SQMRReadTime SQMR The amount of time taken for SQMR to read a block. SleepsStartQR SQMR srv_sleep() calls by an SQM Reader client due to waiting for SQM thread to start. SleepsWriteQ SQMR srv_sleep() calls by an SQM read client due to waiting for the SQM thread to write. XNLInterrupted SQMR Number of interruptions so far when reading large messages with partial read. Such interruptions happen due to time out, unexpected wakeup, or nonblock read request, which is marked as READ_POSTED. XMLPartials SQMR Partial large messages read so far. XNLReads SQMR Large messages read successfully so far. This does not count partial messages, or timeout interruptions. (return status = 0)
