NAME

       pcp.env - script to set Performance Co-Pilot run-time environment variables

SYNOPSIS

       /etc/pcp.env

DESCRIPTION

       The  pcp.env script is sourced by assorted Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) scripts and utilities to define the
       PCP operating environment variables.  The conjugate for executable programs using the  PCP  libraries  is
       the __pmGetConfig(3) function.

       Typical usage of pcp.env in a script is as follows :

                #! /bin/sh

                # source the PCP environment variables
                . /etc/pcp.env
                rest of script ...

       The  full syntax and semantics of the pcp.conf file and the __pmGetConfig function are described in their
       respective reference pages.

ENVIRONMENT

       The PCP_CONF environment variable specifies an alternative path to the pcp.conf file.
