NAME         top

       pmInDom_build, pmInDom_domain, pmInDom_serial - helper methods for
       manipulating instance domain identifiers

C SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>

       pmInDom pmInDom_build(unsigned int domain, unsigned int serial);
       unsigned int pmInDom_domain(pmInDom indom);
       unsigned int pmInDom_serial(pmInDom indom);

       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION         top

       Within  the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) each instance domain is as‐
       signed a unique Instance Domain Identifier (pmInDom).   Internally
       a  pmInDom is constructed from 2 fields: the domain number (of the
       associated Performance Metrics Domain Agent, or PMDA) and the ser‐
       ial number (assigned by the PMDA).

       pmInDom_build constructs a pmInDom from domain and serial.

       pmInDom_domain and pmInDom_serial  return  the  respective  fields
       from indom.
