NAME

       pmSortInstances - sort performance metric values on instance identifier

C SYNOPSIS

       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>

       void pmSortInstances(pmResult *result);

       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION

       The  routine pmSortInstances may be used to guarantee that for each performance metric in the result from
       pmFetch(3), the instances are in ascending instance identifier sequence.

       This is most useful when trying to compute rates from two consecutive pmFetch(3) results.

SEE ALSO

       PMAPI(3) and pmFetch(3).

DIAGNOSTICS

       None.
