NAME

       pmdalustrecomm - Lustre filesystem comms performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)

SYNOPSIS

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/lustrecomm/pmdalustrecomm [-d domain] [-l logfile] [-U username]

DESCRIPTION

       pmdalustrecomm  is  a Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which extracts performance metrics from the Linux procfs filesystem about the
       state of various aspects of the Lustre filesystem.

       The lustrecomm PMDA exports metrics that focus on distributed communication in the filesystem, including metrics related to timeouts,  net-
       work drops, send/recv information and route lengths.  However, it also covers the memory use of some of the Lustre filesystem components.

       A brief description of the pmdalustrecomm command line options follows:

       -d   It	is  absolutely crucial that the performance metrics domain number specified here is unique and consistent.  That is, domain should
	    be different for every PMDA on the one host, and the same domain number should be used for the same PMDA on all hosts.

       -l   Location of the log file.  By default, a log file named lustrecomm.log is written in the current directory of  pmcd(1)  when  pmdalus-
	    trecomm  is started, i.e.  $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd.  If the log file cannot be created or is not writable, output is written to the standard
	    error instead.

       -U   User account under which to run the agent.	The default is the unprivileged "pcp" account in current versions of  PCP,  but  in  older
	    versions the superuser account ("root") was used by default.

INSTALLATION

       If you want access to the names, help text and values for the lustrecomm performance metrics, do the following as root:

	    # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/lustrecomm
	    # ./Install

       If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:

	    # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/lustrecomm
	    # ./Remove

       pmdalustrecomm  is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.  The Install and Remove scripts notify pmcd(1) when the agent
       is installed or removed.

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).

NAME

       pmdarpm - RPM packages performance metrics domain agent (PMDA)

SYNOPSIS

       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rpm/pmdarpm [-C] [-d domain] [-l logfile] [-r path] [-U username]

DESCRIPTION

       pmdarpm	is  a  Performance Metrics Domain Agent (PMDA) which extracts performance metrics reflecting the state of the RPM package database
       managed by rpm(1).

       The rpm PMDA exports metrics that describe each package installed on a system, as well as some cumulative totals.  When	the  RPM  database
       changes the PMDA automatically detects this and uses a background thread to asynchronously refresh its values.

       A brief description of the pmdarpm command line options follows:

       -C   Verify the package iteration code by scanning the RPM database once, then exiting.	Only useful for problem diagnosis and testing.

       -d   It	is  absolutely crucial that the performance metrics domain number specified here is unique and consistent.  That is, domain should
	    be different for every PMDA on the one host, and the same domain number should be used for the same PMDA on all hosts.

       -l   Location of the log file.  By default, a log file named rpm.log is written in  the	current  directory  of	pmcd(1)  when  pmdarpm	is
	    started,  i.e.   $PCP_LOG_DIR/pmcd.   If  the  log	file cannot be created or is not writable, output is written to the standard error
	    instead.

       -r   Specify an alternate path to the RPM database (default is /var/lib/rpm/Packages).

       -U   User account under which to run the agent.	The default is the unprivileged "pcp" account.

INSTALLATION

       If you want access to the names, help text and values for the rpm performance metrics, do the following as root:

	    # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rpm
	    # ./Install

       If you want to undo the installation, do the following as root:

	    # cd $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rpm
	    # ./Remove

       pmdarpm is launched by pmcd(1) and should never be executed directly.  The Install and Remove scripts notify  pmcd(1)  when  the  agent	is
       installed or removed.

		 command line options used to launch pmdarpm
       $PCP_PMDAS_DIR/rpm/help

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).
