Thanks Peter,

The nfdump syntax you suggested appears to show that no sampling is being 
recorded by the flows:

[root@monitor01 ario]# /usr/local/bin/nfdump -E 
/opt/nfsen/profiles-data/live/bfr01-front/2013/01/04/nfcapd.201301041040 
Exporters:

SysID: 1, IP:      10.219.49.2, version: 9, ID: 2081, Sequence failures: 0, 
packets: 982, flows: 21296

[root@monitor01 ario]# /usr/local/bin/nfdump -E 
/opt/nfsen/profiles-data/live/bfr01-hudson/2013/01/04/nfcapd.201301041040

[root@monitor01 ario]# 

Anyone using IOS-XR and have sampling working or know why it might not work?
