SYNOPSIS
========

varnishstat [-1] [-x] [-f field_list] [-l] [-n varnish_name] [-V] [-w delay]

DESCRIPTION
===========

The varnishstat utility displays statistics from a running varnishd(1) instance.

The following options are available:

-1          Instead of presenting of a continuously updated display, print the statistics once and exit.

-f          A comma separated list of the fields to display.  If it starts with '^' it is used as an exclusion
	    list.

-l          Lists the available fields to use with the -f option.

-n          Specifies the name of the varnishd instance to get logs from.  If -n is not specified, the host name
	    is used.

-V          Display the version number and exit.

-w delay    Wait delay seconds between updates.  The default is 1.

-x          Displays the result as XML once.

The columns in the main display are, from left to right:

1.   Value
2.   Per-second average in the period since last update, or a period if the value can not be averaged
3.   Per-second average over process lifetime, or a period if the value can not be averaged
4.   Descriptive text

When using the -1 option, the columns in the output are, from left to right:

1.   Symbolic entry name
2.   Value
3.   Per-second average over process lifetime, or a period if the value can not be averaged
4.   Descriptive text

When using the -x option, the output is::
