+Metrics
+=======
+
+CephFS uses :ref:`Perf Counters` to track metrics. The counters can be labeled (:ref:`Labeled Perf Counters`).
+
+Client Metrics
+--------------
+
+CephFS exports client metrics as :ref:`Labeled Perf Counters`, which could be used to monitor the client performance. CephFS exports the below client metrics.

+Getting Metrics
+===============
+
+The metrics could be scraped from the MDS admin socket as well as using the tell interface. The ``mds_client_metrics-<fsname>`` section in the output of ``counter dump`` command displays the metrics for each client as shown below::
