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.

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).
