[nsp] number of netflow entries on cat6K w/sup2

hi,

we're collecting netflow exports from a catalyst 6500, sup2, pfc2, msfc2,
running in hybrid mode, catos 7.4 on the sup2 and ios 12.1(19)E1 on the
msfc2. the docs warn about the 32K limit on the entries in the netflow
table, and describe various knobs to reduce the number of entries. however,
nowhere have i found a description of how to query the switch to determine
how many entries are currently in the table, or how many times there have
been "misses" because the table was already full. does anyone have any
clues about how to do this?

i'd rather not twiddle the knobs blindly; i'd like to know if (a) i have a
problem to begin with, and (b) the knob twiddling is helping or not.

thanks for any help,
