pmerr(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  configuration
   file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
