You can start with 'pminfo' by itself.
$ pminfo
should dump all the metrics which are available on your local host
(assuming pmcd is running). If memory serves, pcpmon only accept the
metric names at the moment so it should be sufficient to start
crafting pcpmon config files.
I don't know if Michal has some plans to provide "canned" views to
solve the some common problems, but it's definitely worth some
investigation from whoever needs them. Perhaps a repository for pcpmon
configs on oss.sgi.com could be a useful addition. Mark?
