pmrep.conf - pmrep configuration file


Описание (Description)

pmrep is a customizable performance metrics reporting tool. Any available performance metric, live or archived, system and/or application, can be selected for reporting using one of the available output alternatives together with applicable formatting options.

The metrics of interest are named in the metricspec argument(s) on the pmrep command line. These metricspecs define individual metrics or pre-defined performance metricsets to be read from the configuration file described below. For command line argument details see pmrep(1).

The pmrep.conf configuration file allows setting default runtime values and defining any number of custom metricsets for pmrep. A metricset is a user-defined set of arbitrary performance metrics. This allows users to create specifically crafted metricsets particularly relevant for their application or environment. Instead of being dependent on what existing tools provide or collecting the needed data with several disjoint utilities users can define custom metricsets by merely editing pmrep.conf. See below for the metricset specification.

In case pmrep configuration files are read from a directory then values for the [options] and [global] sections will be combined from each file where defined. The last definition of a directive wins, meaning the last definition will be used in case defined multiple times. However, custom metricset sections will not be combined, only the last definition found will be used for reporting.

Options via environment values (see pmGetOptions(3)) override the corresponding built-in default values (if any). Configuration file options override the corresponding environment variables (if any). Command line options override the corresponding configuration file options (if any).
