файл конфигурации pmrep (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).
