I'm trying to find a definition for the system status dashboard entry for "Client-Server Hits" under the "Hits per Second" graph. What exactly does this measure, and what kind of numbers should one be seeing? Packets per second? TCP connections per second? The IVE admin guide and KB are mum on the topic.
As well as the dashboard graphs/XML there are hits stats available via SNMP:
iveTotalHits OBJECT-TYPE
SYNTAX Counter64
MAX-ACCESS read-only
STATUS current
DESCRIPTION
"The Total number of hits to the IVE since last reboot"
::= { juniper-ive 14 }
iveFileHits OBJECT-TYPE

DESCRIPTION
"The Total number of File hits to the IVE since last reboot"

The information I have been able to find about these is:
* iveFileHits
This counter is incremented by the IVE Web server upon each GET/POST corresponding to a file browsing request.
* iveWebHits
This counter is incremented by the IVE Web server upon each http request received by the IVE.
* iveAppletHits
This counter is incremented by the IVE Web server upon each GET request for a Java applet.
* meetingHits
This counter is incremented by the IVE Web server upon each http request received by the IVE for a meeting-related URL.
* ivetermHits
Internal to the implementation of WTS.
* iveSAMHits
Internal to the implementation of SAM.
* iveNCHits
Internal to the implementation of NC.
* iveTotalHits
The total value across all of the above counters.
The Client-Server Hits is composed of the following three counters:
iveSAMHits, iveNCHits and iveTermHits : The 'hits' counters for client/server applications are internal to the implementation and refer to the number of times the webserver reads from a particular socket.
NB. iveWebHits - this counter does NOT include FileHits, appletHits or meetingHits.
The Totals are counted from the last system reboot.
