NAME
pmerr - translate Performance Co-Pilot error codes into error messages SYNOPSIS
pmerr code ... pmerr -l DESCRIPTION
pmerr accepts standard Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) error codes via the code argument(s) and generates the corresponding error text. Each code may be an integer, a hexadecimal value or a hexadecimal value prefixed by either ``0x'' or ``0X''. Error codes must be less than zero, so if code is a positive number, a warning message is produced, and the negated value is used. The alternative use of the -l option causes all known error codes to be listed, along with their symbolic names and error text. 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 configura- tion file, as described in pcp.conf(5). SEE ALSO
PMAPI(3), pmErrStr(3), pcp.conf(5) and pcp.env(5). Performance Co-Pilot PCP PMERR(1)
