NAME perfmeter - display system performance values in multiple dials or strip charts SYNOPSIS perfmeter [ -a ] [ -d ] [ -g ] [ -h h-hand-int ] [ -l ] [ -m m-hand-int ] [ -n sample-filename ] [ -name app-name ] [ -p page-length ] [ -s sample-time ] [ -t value ] [ -v ] [ -C chart ceiling ] [ -H ] [ -L ] [ -M chart smax min- max maxmax ] [ -S ] [ -V ] [ -Wn ] [ +Wn ] [ hostname ] AVAILABILITY This command is available with the OpenWindows environment. DESCRIPTION perfmeter is an OpenWindows XView utility that displays per- formance values (statistics) for a given hostname. If no host is specified, statistics on the current host are metered. The rstatd(1M) daemon must be running on the machine being metered. perfmeter has two display formats. You can display perfor- mance values in the form of strip charts (the default) . Alternatively, the performance information can be displayed in the form of multiple meter dials. By default, the display is updated with a sample-time of 2 seconds. The hour hand of a meter represents the average over a 20-second interval; the minute hand, the average over 2 seconds. The default value displayed is the percent of CPU being util- ized. The maximum scale value for the strip chart will automati- cally double or halve to accommodate increasing or decreas- ing values for the host machine. This scale can be res- tricted to a certain range with the -M option. OPTIONS -a Display all the performance values simultaneously. -d Start the perfmeter display, by showing metered dials. -g Start the perfmeter display, by showing strip charts. -h h-hand-int Set the hour-hand interval to h-hand-int seconds. -l Log the perfmeter samples to a file. -m m-hand-int Set the minute hand interval to m-hand-int seconds. -n sample-filename Name of the file to use, when saving perfmeter samples. -name app-name This option specifies the application name under which resources are to be obtained, rather than the default executable file name. app-name should not contain ``.'' or ``*'' characters. -p page-length Sets the page length for perfmeter samples written to file. The default is 60 lines per page. -s sample-time Set the sample time to sample-time seconds. -t value This option can be present multiple times, and it determines which performance value are to be monitored. The following options are available: cpu Percent of CPU being utilized. pkts Ethernet packets per second. page Paging activity in pages per second. swap Jobs swapped per second. intr Number of device interrupts per second. disk Disk traffic in transfers per second. cntxt Number of context switches per second. load Average number of runnable processes over the last minute. colls Collisions per second detected on the ethernet. errs Errors per second on receiving packets. -v Show version number -C chart ceiling Set a ceiling value for a given strip chart. If the value goes beyond this ceiling and perfmeter is running on a color screen, then this portion of the strip chart will be displayed in red. -H Multiple dials or strip charts will be displayed ini- tially in a horizontal direction. -L If the -g option is present, then initially display the strip charts in line format. direction. -M chart smax minmax maxmax Set a range of maximum values for the given strip chart. Values for each of the arguments should be powers of 2. smax sets the starting maximum-value. minmax sets the lowest allowed maximum-value for the scale. maxmax sets the highest allowed maximum-value. -S If the -g option is present, then initially display the strip charts in a solid filled format. -V Multiple dials or strip charts will be displayed ini- tially in a vertical direction. -Wn Start perfmeter with no title line. +Wn Start perfmeter with a title line present. USAGE Commands You can add extra values to be monitored by clicking the MENU mouse button, and selecting from the popup menu. Alter- natively, you can select Properties from this menu, and this will bring up the property sheet for the tool. The property sheet will allow you to modify what the perfmeter is moni- toring, which direction graphs or dials are displayed in, whether to display dials or graphs, if the graph is solid or lined, whether to monitor a local machine or a remote one, and how often it checks. Note that perfmeter does not try to do a best fit, given the shape of the window and the number of graphs you wish to display. For example, if the display direction is vertical, and you are currently displaying ten graphs in a tall narrow window, then resizing the window to be short and wide will result in ten very thin wide graphs. Most meter parameters can be modified through the use of keyboard accelerators. Move the pointer into the window and type one of the following keyboard keys: d Toggle the direction the graphs or dials are displayed in, between horizontal and vertical. g Toggle the display between graphs and dials. h Decrease hourhandintv by one H Increase hourhandintv by one m Decrease minutehandintv by one M Increase minutehandintv by one q Quit the perfmeter s If graphs are being displayed, toggle between lined and solid graphs. S Toggle the saving of samples to file. t Toggle between the monitoring of the local machine and a remote machine. Note that a remote machine name must have already been setup via the tools property sheet. 1-9 Set sampletime to a range from 1 to 9 seconds.
