NAME

6       pmconfig - Performance Co-Pilot configuration parameters
7

SYNOPSIS

9       $PCP_BINADM_DIR/pmconfig [-alLs?]  [name ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       pmconfig  displays  the values for some or all configuration parameters
13       of the local Performance Co-Pilot toolkit installation.
14

OPTIONS

16       -a, --all
17              Reports all configuration parameters in the default format.
18
19       -l, --list
20              Synonym for the -a option, reports the same (default) format.
21
22       -L, --library
23              This option changes the default reporting mode so that the capa‐
24              bilities  of  the  PCP library are reported, rather than the PCP
25              environment.
26
27       -s, --shell
28              An output format suitable for sourcing in  shell  scripts  which
29              ensures  configuration  information is quoted and preceded by an
30              export statement.  When not reporting the library  capabilities,
31              this  mode  will  produce  a statement that does not override an
32              existing setting in the environment for PCP configuration  vari‐
33              ables.
34
35       -?, --help
36              Display usage message and exit.
37
38       In  the  default  operating mode, pmconfig is often used in conjunction
39       with the $PCP_DIR environment variable to setup scripts  running  under
40       the  Windows  operating  system, where the filesystem hierarchy differs
41       greatly to the of Linux/UNIX-based operating systems.
42

PCP ENVIRONMENT

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