Имя (Name)
pmGetChildrenStatus - return the descendent nodes of a PMNS node
and their respective status
Синопсис C (C Synopsis)
#include <pcp/pmapi.h>
int pmGetChildrenStatus(const char *name, char ***offspring,
int **status);
cc ... -lpcp
Описание (Description)
Given a fully qualified pathname to a node in the current
Performance Metrics Name Space (PMNS), as identified by name,
pmGetChildrenStatus returns via offspring a list of the relative
names of all of the immediate descendent nodes of name in the
current PMNS.
As a special case, if name is an empty string (i.e.""), the
immediate descendants of the root node in the PMNS will be
returned.
If status is not NULL, then pmGetChildrenStatus will also return
the status of each child via status. The status will refer to
either a leaf node (with value PMNS_LEAF_STATUS) or a non-leaf
node (with value PMNS_NONLEAF_STATUS).
Normally, pmGetChildrenStatus will return the number of
descendent names discovered, else a value less than zero for an
error. The value zero indicates that name is a valid metric
name, i.e. is associated with a leaf node in the PMNS.
The resulting list of pointers offspring and the values (the
relative names) that the pointers reference will have been
allocated by pmGetChildrenStatus with a single call to malloc(3),
and it is the responsibility of the pmGetChildrenStatus caller to
free(offspring) to release the space when it is no longer
required. The same holds true for the status array.
When an error occurs, or name is a leaf node (i.e. the result of
pmGetChildrenStatus is less than one), both offspring and status
are undefined (no space will have been allocated and so calling
free(3) is a singularly bad idea).
Диагностика (Diagnostic)
PM_ERR_NOPMNS
Failed to access a PMNS for operation. Note that if the
application hasn't a priori called pmLoadNameSpace(3) and
wants to use the distributed PMNS, then a call to
pmGetChildrenStatus must be made inside a current context.
PM_ERR_NAME
The pathname name is not valid in the current PMNS
PM_ERR_*
Other diagnostics are for protocol failures when accessing
the distributed PMNS.
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). Values for these variables may be obtained
programmatically using the pmGetConfig(3) function.
