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 corre
sponding error text.
Each code may be an integer, a hexadecimal value or a hex
adecimal value prefixed by either ``0x'' or ``0X''.
Error codes must be less than zero, so if code is a posi
tive 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(4).
