NAME
pmiUnits, pmiID, pmiInDom - construct core metric data structures
C SYNOPSIS
#include
<pcp/pmapi.h>
#include <pcp/import.h>
pmID
pmiID(int domain, int cluster,
int item);
pmInDom pmiInDom(int domain, int
serial);
pmUnits pmiUnits(int dimSpace, int
dimTime, int dimCount,
int scaleSpace,
int scaleTime,

Perl SYNOPSIS
use PCP::LogImport;
$pmid =
pmiID($domain, $cluster,
$item);
$indom = pmiInDom($domain,
$serial);
$units = pmiUnits($dimSpace,
$dimTime, $dimCount,
$scaleSpace, $scaleTime,
$scaleCount);
DESCRIPTION
As part of the Performance Co-Pilot Log Import API (see LOGIMPORT(3)), these routines provide convenience methods (especially for script use) for constructing pmID, pmInDom and pmUnits structures respectively, to be used in subsequent calls to pmiAddMetric(3) and pmiAddInstance(3).
Refer to pmLookupDesc(3) for a complete description of the values and semantics of the components of a pmUnits structure, and hence the valid argument values for pmiUnits.
