NAME

6       pcp-verify - verify aspects of a PCP installation
7

SYNOPSIS

9       pcp verify [-a archive] [-h host] [-csvV?]
10

DESCRIPTION

12       pcp-verify inspects various aspects of a PCP collector installation and
13       reports on whether it is configured  correctly  for  certain  modes  of
14       operation.
15
16       By default, pcp-verify checks that PMCD is running and no agents are in
17       a failed state.  These checks can be extended  and  refined  using  the
18       command line options.
19

OPTIONS

21       The available command line options are:
22
23       -a archive, --archive=archive
24            Use the archive for verification.
25
26       -c, --containers
27            Verify the collector installation for monitoring containers.
28
29       -h host, --host=host
30            Connect to the PMCD on host for verification.
31
32       -s, --secure
33            Verify  that  the  required components for encrypted communication
34            are in place.
35
36       -v, --verbose
37            Increase the verbosity, and report on each check as  it  is  made.
38            In the absence of any issues found, pcp-verify operates silently.
39
40       -V, --version
41            Display version number and exit.
42
43       -?, --help

45

DIAGNOSTICS

47       pcp-verify  will exit with a non-zero status if it finds anything worth
48       reporting, otherwise it is silent and returns zero.
49

PCP ENVIRONMENT

51       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the
52       file  and  directory names used by PCP.  On each installation, the file
53       /etc/pcp.conf contains the  local  values  for  these  variables.   The
54       $PCP_CONF  variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration
55       file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
56
57       For environment variables affecting PCP tools, see pmGetOptions(3).
