PMCONFIG(1) General Commands Manual PMCONFIG(1)
NAME
pmconfig - Performance Co-Pilot configuration parameters
SYNOPSIS
$PCP_BINADM_DIR/pmconfig [-alLs?] [name ...]
DESCRIPTION
pmconfig displays the values for some or all configuration
parameters of the local Performance Co-Pilot toolkit
installation.
OPTIONS
The available command line options are:
-a, --all
Reports all configuration parameters in the default format.
-l, --list
Synonym for the -a option, reports the same (default)
format.
-L, --library
This option changes the default reporting mode so that the
capabilities of the PCP library are reported, rather than
the PCP environment.
-s, --shell
An output format suitable for sourcing in shell scripts
which ensures configuration information is quoted and
preceded by an export statement. When not reporting the
library capabilities, this mode will produce a statement
that does not override an existing setting in the
environment for PCP configuration variables.
-?, --help
Display usage message and exit.
In the default operating mode, pmconfig is often used in
conjunction with the $PCP_DIR environment variable to setup
scripts running under the Windows operating system, where the
filesystem hierarchy differs greatly to the of Linux/UNIX-based
operating systems.
PCP ENVIRONMENT
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to
parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each
installation, the file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values
for these variables. The $PCP_CONF variable may be used to
specify an alternative configuration file, as described in
pcp.conf(5).
