[HPADM] RE: Getting Processes from Measureware



extract -xp -p -b date/time -e date/time -r report_file -f output_file

Man extract for more details but this will export processes from begin
to end time w/ the format defined in the report file (defaults in
/var/opt/perf) and send to output to the output file.

Attached is a sample report file for looking at processes -- giving
time, PID, name, CPU util, IO rt, and IO wait time for a process. Look
at reptall for total list of metric available.

I use this command daily, so let me know if you run into any issues.

Subject: [HPADM] Getting Processes from Measureware

Hello All,
I have been searching through documentation trying to find if there is a
way to extract the actual process name and process ID from measureware
as you would see if you were running glance but have not had much
success. I am able to get all the CPU, I/O, Network, etc. but I would
like to show which processes are using large amounts of resources. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

******************************************************************************
**
** This is the "reptall" report file. It is used as a sample template
** for constructing report definition files which are used by the
** HP MeasureWare Agent program "extract".
**
** All lines which begin with an asterisk "*" in the first column are
** considered comments.
**
** The first section selects overall report format parameters.
**
** REPORT sets the report title, keywords which begin with an
** exclamation point "!" are replaced by the actual values
** when the report is generated.
**
** FORMAT selects ASCII (normal "printable" type reports)
** DATAFILE (used for moving data to spread*** programs)
** WK1 or
** SPREAD*** (used by spread*** programs)
** or BINARY (non printable, must be read by a program)
**
** HEADINGS is either ON (Includes the report title and column headings)
** or OFF (Does not include the report title & headings)
**
** SEPARATOR is optional, but can be used to select a column separator character
** other then the default of blank.
**
** SUMMARY defines the number of minutes of data to be summarized for each
** summary record. (Summary may range from 5-1440 minutes, the
** default is 60 minutes, or one hour).
**
** MISSING defines what value is to be used when exporting a metric which
** is missing. A missing metric may arise when that metric was not
** collected by a particular version of the data collector. When
** exporting data with LAYOUT MULTIPLE, (see below), the data for
** an instance which was not logged will normally be missing.
** The default value for missing data is zero.
**

SEPARATOR="|"
SUMMARY=60

*********************************************************************
**
** The rest of the file consists of specifics about the metrics to be
** exported for a single data type. Each exportable class may have one
** set of definitions in which the following lines lines appear.
**
** DATA TYPE specifies the type (class) of data. (required)
**
** OUTPUT specifies the name of the output file where the exported data is
** to be written. OUTPUT may be specified for each class named.
** (optional)
**
** LAYOUT selects SINGLE (one instance per record, i.e. a disk per record)
** MULTIPLE (multiple instances presented in a single record,
** for example, all disks exported in the same
** record)
** (optional)
**
** Individual metric names which belong to the class. Metrics will be exported
** in the order listed whenever possible. In order to be exported, metrics
** must not be commented out (that is, they must not contain an asterisk before
** the metric name).
**
** This sample report was generated with a section for each data type which
** is available in the currently open log file. Following the DATA TYPE
** line, each metric which is available for export for this data type is
** listed, but commented out. To select metrics for your report, delete
** the asterisk (*) in the first column.
