9 $PCP_BINADM_DIR/pmconfig [-alLs?] [name ...]
10
12 pmconfig displays the values for some or all configuration parameters
13 of the local Performance Co-Pilot toolkit installation.
14
16 The available command line options are:
17
18 -a, --all
19 Reports all configuration parameters in the default format.
20
21 -l, --list
22 Synonym for the -a option, reports the same (default) format.
23
24 -L, --library
25 This option changes the default reporting mode so that the capa‐
26 bilities of the PCP library are reported, rather than the PCP
27 environment.
28
29 -s, --shell
30 An output format suitable for sourcing in shell scripts which
31 ensures configuration information is quoted and preceded by an
32 export statement. When not reporting the library capabilities,
33 this mode will produce a statement that does not override an
34 existing setting in the environment for PCP configuration vari‐
35 ables.
36
37 -?, --help
38 Display usage message and exit.
39
40 In the default operating mode, pmconfig is often used in conjunction
41 with the $PCP_DIR environment variable to setup scripts running under
42 the Windows operating system, where the filesystem hierarchy differs
43 greatly to the of Linux/UNIX-based operating systems.
44
46 Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the
47 file and directory names used by PCP. On each installation, the file
48 /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables. The
49 $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration
50 file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
51
53 pmGetConfig(3), pcp.conf(5) and pcp.env(5).
