Описание (Description)
As part of the Performance Co-Pilot Log Import API (see
LOGIMPORT(3)), pmiAddMetric is used to define a new metric. The
metric's name must follow the naming conventions described in
PCPIntro(1) and should be unique for each LOGIMPORT context.
The other arguments are in effect the fields of a pmDesc
structure. Refer to pmLookupDesc(3) for a complete description
of the values and semantics of the components of this structure,
and hence the valid argument values for pmiAddMetrics.
The internal identifier for the metric may be given using the
pmid argument and must be unique for each LOGIMPORT context. The
value for pmid which would typically be constructed using the
pmID_build macro, e.g. pmID_build(PMI_DOMAIN, 0, 3) for the
fourth metric in first ``cluster'' of metrics in the Performance
Metrics Domain PMI_DOMAIN (which is the default for all meta data
created by the LOGIMPORT library). Alternatively, pmid may be
PM_IN_NULL and pmiAddMetric will assign a unique pmid (although
this means the pmid remains opaque and the application must use
pmiPutValue(3) or pmiPutValueHandle(3) and cannot use
pmiPutResult(3) to add data values to the PCP archive).
type defines the data type of the metric and must be one of the
PM_TYPE_... values defined in <pcp/import.h>.
The instance domain for the metric is defined by indom and may be
PM_INDOM_NULL for a metric with a singular value, else the value
for indom would normally be constructed using the pmInDom_build
macro, e.g. pmInDom_build(LOGIMPORT,0) for the first instance
domain in the Performance Metrics Domain LOGIMPORT (which is the
default for all meta data created by the LOGIMPORT library).
Multiple metrics can share the same instance domain if they have
values for a similar (or more usually, identical) set of
instances.
The semantics of the metric (counter, instantaneous value, etc.)
is specified by the sem argument which would normally be the
result of a call to the convenience constructor method
pmiUnits(3).
Диагностика (Diagnostic)
pmiAddMetric returns zero on success else a negative value that
can be turned into an error message by calling pmiErrStr(3).
