Thanks for that, I was familiar with that command but I appear to be lacking
some required information in order to use the output from it to get what I am
looking for.
At a high level – I essentially need to know (or be able to calculate) what
percentage* of hardware resources are being consumed by the current policies
being used.
*I appreciate that this is going to be a figure ‘per NP’ and/or ‘per LC’ but
regardless I need to know so that we can plan expansion.
The command you shared specifically, gives output along these lines (on a
random LC here):

<snip>
However, I have no reference point for what the ‘maximum’ would be for any of
those values (or more specifically, I’m not aware what the maximums are).
Take this output for example:
#show qos capability location 0/0/cpu0
Tue Mar 14 08:02:14.088 GMT
Capability Information:
======================
<snip>
Max Policy maps supported on this LC: 16384
Max classes per child-policy: 1024
Max classes per policy: 1024
<snip>
It shows the limitations of this LC which is good, but I cannot find where to
get the ‘current usage’ in the same context as the maximums listed here.
So something like ‘number of policy maps currently active on the LC’ or ‘number
of classes per policy’. Without actually walking through the configurations on
all ports and cards manually of course.
I’m reasonably familiar with the actual operation of QoS on the chassis (and in
general) – in reality it is the complexity and size of our QoS structure which
has led to the need for us to accurately quantify the hardware usage levels.
If you have any additional input I’d very much appreciate it!
Best wishes & thanks,
