Описание (Description)
pmclient
and pmclient_fg
are simple clients that use the
Performance Metrics Application Programming Interface (PMAPI) to
report some high-level system performance metrics.
The real value of these tools is as sample clients using the
PMAPI(3), interfaces and to this end the source code is included
with the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) package (see PCPIntro(1)),
and is typically installed in /usr/share/pcp/demos/pmclient.
The pmclient_fg
program differs to pmclient
in that it uses the
fetchgroup API extension to the PMAPI, see pmFetchGroup(3).
Normally pmclient
operates on the distributed Performance Metrics
Name Space (PMNS), however if the -n
option is specified an
alternative local PMNS is loaded from the file pmnsfile.
Unless directed to another host by the -h
option, or to an
archive by the -a
option, pmclient
will contact the Performance
Metrics Collector Daemon (PMCD) on the local host to obtain the
required information. The argument to -a
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. The
-a
and -h
options are mutually exclusive.
By default, pmclient
reports the time of day according to the
local timezone on the system where pmclient
is run. The -Z
option changes the timezone to timezone in the format of the
environment variable TZ
as described in environ(7). The -z
option changes the timezone to the local timezone at the host
that is the source of the performance metrics, as identified via
either the -h
or -a
options.
The output from pmclient
is directed to standard output, and
lists
+ Aggregate CPU utilization, in the range 0 to 1.
+ If the system has more than 1 CPU, the ordinal number of the
busiest CPU, in the range 0 to ...
+ If the system has more than 1 CPU, the CPU utilization for the
busiest CPU.
+ Real free memory in Mbytes.
+ Aggregate physical disk I/O operations per second (IOPS).
+ Load average over the last 1 minute and over the last 15
minutes.
Параметры (Options)
The available command line options are:
-a
archive, --archive
=archive
Performance metric values are retrieved from the set of
Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) archive log files identified by
the archive argument, 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.
-A
align, --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.
-h
host, --host
=host
Fetch performance metrics from pmcd(1) on host, rather than
from the default localhost.
-n
pmnsfile, --namespace
=pmnsfile
Load an alternative Performance Metrics Name Space (PMNS(5))
from the file pmnsfile.
-O
origin, --origin
=origin
When reporting archived metrics, start reporting at origin
within the time window (see -S
and -T
). Refer to
PCPIntro(1) for a complete description of the syntax for
origin.
-P
, --pause
The default behavior for replaying a set of archives, is to
replay at full speed. The -P
option may be used in
conjunction with a set of archives, to request that the
prevailing real-time delay be applied between samples (see
-t
) to effect a pause.
-s
samples, --samples
=samples
The samples argument defines the number of samples to be
retrieved and reported. If samples is 0 or -s
is not
specified, pmclient
will sample and report continuously (in
real time mode) or until the end of the set of PCP archives
(in archive mode).
-S
starttime, --start
=starttime
The -S
option may be used in conjunction with a set of
archives to request that display start at the starttime from
the start of the archive(s). Refer to PCPIntro(1) for a
complete description of the syntax for starttime.
-t
interval, --interval
=interval
Set the reporting interval to something other than the
default 5 seconds. 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).
-T
endtime, --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.
-V
, --version
Display version number and exit.
-z
, --hostzone
Use the local timezone of the host that is the source of the
performance metrics, as identified by either the -h
or the
-a
options. The default is to use the timezone of the local
host.
-Z
timezone, --timezone
=timezone
Use timezone for the date and time. Timezone is in the
format of the environment variable TZ
as described in
environ(7).
-?
, --help
Display usage message and exit.

Окружение PCP (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).
For environment variables affecting PCP tools, see
pmGetOptions(3).
