atoprc - pcp-atop/pcp-atopsar related resource file
This manual page documents the resource file of the pcp-atop and pcp-
atopsar commands. These commands can be used to monitor the system
and process load on a system.
The pcp-atoprc file contains the default settings. These settings are
read during startup, first from the system-wide rcfile /etc/atoprc
and after that from the user-specific rcfile ~/.atoprc (so system-
wide settings can be overruled by an individual user). The options
in both rcfiles are identical.
The rcfile contains keyword-value pairs, one on every line (blank
lines and lines starting with a #-sign are ignored).
The following keywords can be specified:
flags
A list of default flags for pcp-atop can be defined here. The
flags which are allowed are 'g', 'm', 'd', 'n', 'u', 'p', 's',
'c', 'v', 'C', 'M', 'D', 'N', 'A', 'a', 'y', 'f', 'F', 'G', 'R',
'1' and 'x'.
interval
The default interval value in seconds.
linelen
The length of a screen line when sending output to a file or pipe
(default 80).
username
The default regular expression for the users for which active
processes will be shown.
procname
The default regular expression for the process names to be shown.
maxlinecpu
The maximum number of active CPU's that will be shown.
maxlinelvm
The maximum number of active logical volumes that will be shown.
maxlinemdd
The maximum number of active multiple devices that will be shown.
maxlinedisk
The maximum number of active disks that will be shown.
maxlinenfsm
The maximum number of NFS mounts that will be shown on an NFS
client.
maxlineintf
The maximum number of active network interfaces that will be
shown.
maxlinecont
The maximum number of active containers that will be shown.
cpucritperc
The busy percentage considered critical for a processor (see
section COLORS in the man-page of the pcp-atop command). This
percentage is used to determine a weighted percentage for line
coloring and sorting of active processes. When this value is
zero, no line coloring or automatic sorting is performed for this
resource.
dskcritperc
The busy percentage considered critical for a disk (see section
COLORS in the man-page of the pcp-atop command). This percentage
is used to determine a weighted percentage for line coloring and
sorting of active processes. When this value is zero, no line
coloring or automatic sorting is performed for this resource.
netcritperc
The busy percentage considered critical for a network interface
(see section COLORS in the man-page of the pcp-atop command).
This percentage is used to determine a weighted percentage for
line coloring and sorting of active processes. When this value
is zero, no line coloring or automatic sorting is performed for
this resource.
memcritperc
The percentage considered critical for memory utilization (see
section COLORS in the man-page of the pcp-atop command). This
percentage is used to determine a weighted percentage for line
coloring and sorting of active processes. When this value is
zero, no line coloring or automatic sorting is performed for this
resource.
swpcritperc
The occupation percentage considered critical for swap space (see
section COLORS in the man-page of the pcp-atop command). This
percentage is used to determine a weighted percentage for line
coloring and sorting of active processes. When this value is
zero, no line coloring or automatic sorting is performed for this
resource.
swoutcritsec
The number of pages swapped out per second considered critical
for for memory utilization (see section COLORS in the man-page of
the pcp-atop command). This threshold is used in combination
with 'memcritperc' to determine a weighted percentage for line
coloring and sorting of active processes. When this value is
zero, no line coloring or automatic sorting is performed for this
resource.
almostcrit
A percentage of the critical percentage to determine if the
resource is almost critical (see section COLORS in the man-page
of the pcp-atop command). When this value is zero, no line
coloring for `almost critical' is performed.
colorinfo
Definition of color name for information messages (default:
green).
Allowed colors are: red green yellow blue magenta cyan black
white.
colorthread
Definition of color name for thread-specific lines when using the
'y' option (default: yellow).
Allowed colors are: red green yellow blue magenta cyan black
white.
coloralmost
Definition of color name for almost critical resources (default:
cyan).
Allowed colors are: red green yellow blue magenta cyan black
white.
colorcritical
Definition of color name for critical resources (default: red).
Allowed colors are: red green yellow blue magenta cyan black
white.
pcp-atopsarflags
A list of default flags for pcp-atopsar can be defined here. The
flags that are allowed are 'S', 'x', 'C', 'M', 'H', 'a', 'A' and
the flags to select one or more specific reports.
An example of the /etc/atoprc or ~/.atoprc file:
flags Aaf

ownpagline PAGSCAN:3 BLANKBOX:0 PAGSWIN:3 PAGSWOUT:7
The keywords 'ownprocline' and 'ownpagline' are explained in the
subsequent section.
Via the rcfile it is possible to define the layout of the output
lines yourself, i.e. you can define the layout of one line with
process information with the keyword 'ownprocline' (to be selected
with the key 'o' or the flag -o) and you can redefine all lines with
system information.
The layout of an output-line can be defined as follows (notice that
this should be specified as one line in the rcfile):
keyword <columnid>:<prio> [<columnid>:<prio> ...]
The columnid is the symbolic name of a column that should shown at
this position in the output line.
The prio is a positive integer value that determines which columns
have precedence whenever not all specified columns fit into the
current screen-width. The higher value, the higher priority.
The column-specifications should be separated by a space. The order
in which columns have been specified is the order in which they will
be shown, with respect to their priority (columns that do not fit,
will be dropped dynamically).
A special columnid for system lines is 'BLANKBOX'. This indicates
that an empty column is required at this position. Also this special
columnid is followed by a priority (usually low).
The following definition can be specified for process information:
ownprocline
The columnid's are the names of the columns that are shown in the
normal output of the process-related lines that are shown by pcp-
atop such as 'PID', 'CMD', 'S', .... The only exception is the
special columnid 'SORTITEM' that is used to show one of the
columns CPU%/DSK%/MEM%/NET%, depending on the chosen sort-
criterium.
An example of a user-defined process line:
ownprocline PID:20 PPID:10 SYSCPU:15 USRCPU:15 VGROW:14
VSIZE:12 RGROW:14 RSIZE:12 ST:8 EXC:7 S:11 SORTITEM:18 CMD:20
The following definitions are used internally by pcp-atop as the
default system lines (you can redefine each of them in the rcfile as
one line):
