The following additional PCP command line long options are also
available:
--align
=align
Force the initial sample to be aligned on the boundary of a
natural time unit align. Refer to PCPIntro(1) for a
complete description of the syntax for align.
--archive
=archive
Performance metric values are retrieved from the set of
Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) archive log files identified by
the argument archive, which is a comma-separated list of
names, each of which may be the base name of an archive or
the name of a directory containing one or more archives.
--finish
=endtime
When reporting archived metrics, the report will be
restricted to those records logged before or at endtime.
Refer to PCPIntro(1) for a complete description of the
syntax for endtime.
--host
=host
Fetch performance metrics from pmcd(1) on host, rather than
from the default localhost.
--hostzone
Use the local timezone of the host that is the source of the
performance metrics, as identified by either the --host
or
the --archive
options. The default is to use the timezone
of the local host.
--hotproc
Use the pmdaproc(1) hotproc metrics.
--interval
=interval
Set the reporting interval to something other than the
default 1 second. The interval argument follows the syntax
described in PCPIntro(1), and in the simplest form may be an
unsigned integer (the implied units in this case are
seconds).
--samples
=samples
The samples option defines the number of samples to be
retrieved and reported.
--start
=starttime
When reporting archived metrics, the report will be
restricted to those records logged at or after starttime.
Refer to PCPIntro(1) for a complete description of the
syntax for starttime.
--timezone
=timezone
Use timezone for the date and time. Timezone is in the
format of the environment variable TZ
as described in
environ(7).
--version
Display version number and exit.
