DESCRIPTION

21       Within  the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) each metric is assigned a unique
22       Performance Metric Identifier (pmID).  Internally a pmID is constructed
23       from 3 fields: the domain number (of the associated Performance Metrics
24       Domain Agent, or PMDA), the cluster number and  the  item  number  (the
25       last two are assigned by the PMDA).
26
27       pmID_build constructs a pmID from domain, cluster and item.
28
29       pmID_domain,  pmID_cluster  and  pmID_item return the respective fields
30       from pmid.
