DESCRIPTION

22       As  part of the Performance Co-Pilot Log Import API (see LOGIMPORT(3)),
23       pmiWrite forces accumulated data values out to the PCP archive.
24
25       The data values and associated metadata have previously been  built  up
26       using  calls  to pmiAddMetric(3), pmiAddInstance(3), pmiPutValue(3) and
27       pmiPutValueHandle(3).
28
29       The current set of data values and any new metadata is written  to  the
30       archive  with a timestamp of sec and usec in the source timezone of the
31       archive, see pmiSetTimezone(3).
32

DIAGNOSTICS

34       pmiWrite returns zero on success else a  negative  value  that  can  be
35       turned into an error message by calling pmiErrStr(3).
