Описание (Description)
pmdatrace is a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which
exports transaction performance metrics from application
processes which use the pcp_trace library described in
pmdatrace(3).
A brief description of the pmdatrace command line options
follows:
-d It is absolutely crucial that the performance metrics domain
number specified here is unique and consistent. That is,
domain should be different for every PMDA on the one host,
and the same domain number should be used for the same PMDA
on all hosts.
-l Location of the log file. By default, a log file named
trace.log is written in the current directory of pmcd(1)
when pmdatrace is started, i.e. $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd. If the
log file cannot be created or is not writable, output is
written to the standard error instead.
-A Host-based access control for pmdatrace. access must be
either an allow or deny specification, using either
allow:hostspec:maxconns or disallow:hostspec, where `allow'
and `disallow' are keywords, `hostspec' is a host
specification conforming to the format used by both pmcd(1)
and pmlogger(1), and `maxconns' is the maximum number of
connections allowed from a given `hostspec'. Using a
maximum connections of zero specifies an unlimited number of
connections for the accompanying `hostspec'.
-I Communicate with pcp_trace clients via the given Internet
port. This can alternatively be specified by setting
$PCP_TRACE_PORT in the environment to some valid port number
(use of the -I option overrides this). The default port
number is 4323.
-T period defines the aggregation period used to compute the
recent averages and extrema. Specified as a time interval
using the syntax described in PCPIntro(1) for the common -t
PCP argument, e.g. 30 seconds or 1 min. The default is 60
seconds.
-M User account under which to run the agent. The default is
the unprivileged "pcp" account in current versions of PCP,
but in older versions the superuser account ("root") was
used by default.
-N Internally, the aggregation period is divided into bucket
divisions, and the rolling average is recomputed every
period/bucket seconds. For example, the defaults correspond
to -T 60 and -N 12, which means the average is recomputed
every five seconds for a period covering the prior 60
seconds.
-U This option allows the dimension and scale associated with
the observation value metric to be configured. units is a
comma-separated string of six integer values, which are the
space dimension, time dimension, count dimension, space
scale, time scale, and count scale, respectively. The
default dimension and scale is ``none'', which is equivalent
to presenting ``0,0,0,0,0,0'' as the argument to -U. The
units associated with a metric are most easily viewed using
the -d (metric description) option to pminfo(1). The
Install script described below steps through this option
quite explicitly, so it is recommended that the Install
script be used for building up the units specification.
Essentially, the exported metrics provide statistics on the time
for completion of each transaction, and an average count of
transactions completed and watch points passed over a given time
period.
Установка (Installation)
In order for a host to export the names, help text and values for
the Trace performance metrics, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/trace
# ./Install
If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:
# cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/trace
# ./Remove
pmdatrace is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed
directly. The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the
agent is installed or removed.

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).
