also services requests from the qustat command and archives
statistics to .csv files.  The archive files reside in /usr/cvfs/qustats.

configuration file, which specifies the intervals for gathering and
archiving statistics.  Debugging levels can also be specified in this file.

respectively. This may be done to propagate changes made to the
existing

.IR /Library/Logs/Xsan/debug/snstatd.log
for debugging purposes.
