though I have no answer ready, I briefly skimmed the code, and it looks to me like we have CTRL interface commands ready to query rate counters etc, but I couldn't find commands to actually list the available ones.
See my other response.
In almost all the core network .cfg you can place a config like
stats reporter statsd disable remote-ip ${STATSD_IP} remote-port 9125 level global no prefix enable stats interval 5
The problem is that this appears to have zero documentation beyond the API reference of libosmocore, which I pointed out in my other response on this thread. What we need is a section in the "common" part of the manuals explainig this mechanism in detail. I created https://osmocom.org/issues/3768 for this.
This also brings me to http://osmocom.org/issues/3670 "TTCN-3 test for statsd exporter" which are missing so far.
Finally, https://media.ccc.de/v/SE8HRK is a talk by daniel on the related features which may help as background information.
Any volunteers? Seems like a very important topic operationally, but nothing anyone has been contributing any effort towards so far :/
Regards, Harald
