Get-BucketStats

This PowerShell cmdlet enables the user to retrieve and display bucket distribution and status information for the specified cache. It helps monitor how buckets are assigned across cluster nodes.

When to Use this Command

Use Get-BucketStats when you need to:

  • Check how buckets are distributed across servers and how many are assigned to each node.
  • Monitor redistribution after a node joins or leaves the cluster.
  • Identify buckets currently under state transfer.

This is especially helpful during scale-out/scale-in operations or when investigating cluster stability.
