NAME

6       pmconfig - Performance Co-Pilot configuration parameters
7

SYNOPSIS

9       $PCP_BINADM_DIR/pmconfig [-a|-l] [-L] [-s] [name ...]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       pmconfig  displays  the values for some or all configuration parameters
13       of the local Performance Co-Pilot toolkit installation.
14
15       The -L option may be used to change the default reporting mode so  that
16       the  capabilities  of the PCP library are reported, rather than the PCP
17       environment.
18
19       An output format suitable for sourcing in shell scripts can be obtained
20       using  the -s option, which ensures configuration information is quoted
21       and preceded by an export statement.  When not  reporting  the  library
22       capabilities, this mode will produce a statement that does not override
23       an existing setting in the environment for PCP configuration variables.
24
25       In the default operating mode, pmconfig is often  used  in  conjunction
26       with  the  $PCP_DIR environment variable to setup scripts running under
27       the Windows operating system, where the  filesystem  hierarchy  differs
28       greatly to the of Linux/UNIX-based operating systems.

PCP ENVIRONMENT

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