Описание (Description)

pmchart is a graphical utility that plots performance metrics values available through the facilities of the Performance Co- Pilot (PCP). Multiple charts can be displayed simultaneously, either aligned on the unified time axis (X-axis), and through the use of multiple interface Tabs.

Metric values can be sourced from one or more live hosts (simultaneously). Alternatively, one or more sets of PCP archives can be used as a source of historical data. See PCPIntro(1) for an in-depth discussion of the capabilities of the PCP framework, many of which are used by pmchart.

Many aspects of the behaviour of pmchart can be customised through the interface. In particular, the use of "views" (refer to the section describing VIEWS later in this document) allows predefined sets of metrics and charting parameters like colors, scaling, titles, legends, and so on to be stored for later use, or use with different hosts and sets of archives. In addition, the Preferences dialog allows customisations to the rest of the pmchart user interface to be saved and restored between different invocations of the tool. This allows the default background color, highlight color, contents and location of the toolbar, and many other aspects to be configured.

pmchart makes extensive use of the pmtime(1) utility for time control, refer to the pmtime manual page for further details of its operation.
