NAME

6       pmerr - translate Performance Co-Pilot error codes into error messages
7

SYNOPSIS

9       pmerr code ...
10       pmerr -l
11

DESCRIPTION

13       pmerr  accepts  standard Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) error codes via the
14       code argument(s) and generates the corresponding error text.
15
16       Each code may be an integer, a hexadecimal value or a hexadecimal value
17       prefixed by either ``0x'' or ``0X''.
18
19       Error  codes must be less than zero, so if code is a positive number, a
20       warning message is produced, and the negated value is used.
21
22       The alternative use of the -l option causes all known error codes to be
23       listed, along with their symbolic names and error text.

PCP ENVIRONMENT

26       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the
27       file and directory names used by PCP.  On each installation,  the  file
28       /etc/pcp.conf  contains  the  local  values  for  these variables.  The
29       $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative  configuration
30       file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
