NAME
pmdbg - translate Performance Co-Pilot debug control flags SYNOPSIS
pmdbg code ... pmdbg -l DESCRIPTION
The components of the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) use a global vector of bit-fields to control diagnostic and debug output. pmdbg with a -l argument prints out the mnemonic and decimal values of all the bit-fields in the debug control vector. In the alternative usage, the code arguments are values for the debug vector, and the bit-fields that are enabled by each of these values is listed. Each code may be an integer, a hexadecimal value or a hexadecimal value prefixed by either ``0x'' or ``0X''. Most applications using the facilities of the PCP support a -DN command-line syntax to enable debug control. pmdbg is designed to help choose an appropriate value for N. 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
PCPIntro(1), pcp.conf(5) and pcp.env(5). Performance Co-Pilot PCP PMDBG(1)

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
