A few simple questions...
- I'm using the following command:
> pmafm Latest pmdumplog -S "@whatever"
This is all fine and good. But say I just want a single metric. This
doesn't work:
> pmafm Latest pmdumplog -S "@whatever" mem.freemem
pmdumplog: Cannot open archive "mem.freemem": No such file or directory
Obviously, this is because there is no archive on the command line, and
mem.freemem is thought to be the archive. Is there a way around this, or
is this just the way it is?
- When I run pmlogger_check to start up the pmlogger processes, there is a
considerable gap between each one starting up. Is this on purpose so that
the pmlogger processes are staggered and don't eat up the machine at the
same time? Or is there some other reason...
- Is there a way to round the time values in the archives to, say, every
five minutes, so that 13:42:23.045 would become 13:40? I doubt this,
because I know the code for any arbitrary rounding time would be
nontrivial, and this isn't that necessary.
- Is pminfo the suggested way to get a single value from an archive at a
certain time, and pmdumplog the suggested way to get a range of time
values?
Yup, they all are simple questions.
Thanks,
Alan
