MONITOR PROCESS QUOTA
Monitor the quota of a process and displays this in a bar graph.
Format:
$ VIP MONITOR PROCESS QUOTA [process-name]
PARAMETER:
process-name
The name of the process that is to be monitored. The process name
can have up to 15 alphanumeric characters.
The specified process must be in the same group as the current
process.
SHORTCUTS:
You can use the following short cut keys:
Ctrl/I (Interval) Forces a monitor scan and shows the next page.
QUALIFIERS:
/BEGINNING
/BEGINNING=time
Allows you to specify the time when the actual monitoring starts. You
can specify an absolute time, a delta time or one of the relative date
strings YESTERDAY, TODAY or TOMORROW.
/ENDING
/ENDING=time
Allows you to specify the time the monitoring is to end. You can
specify an absolute time, a delta time or the relative date string
TOMORROW. When the ending time is a delta time and the beginning time
is also specified, the actual ending time is the sum of the specified
beginning and ending time. The ending time must be in the future.
/IDENTIFICATION
/IDENTIFICATION=pid
Monitors the process with the specified process identification (PID).
The PID is assigned by the system when the process is created. When
you specify a PID, you can omit the leading zeros.
If you specify the /IDENTIFICATION qualifier, it overrides the
process-name parameter.
/INTERVAL
/INTERVAL=seconds
/NOINTERVAL
Allows you to specify the interval time between two monitor scans in
seconds. The default interval time is 3 seconds. When you specify
the /NOINTERVAL qualifier, the first page will be shown and there
will be no monitoring besides the use of the short cut keys.
/NAME
/NAME=quota-name
Selects the quota-name to be monitored. Specify one of the following
quota's:
ALL All quota's. This is the default value.
ASTCNT AST count quota.
BIOCNT Buffered I/O count quota.
BYTCNT Byte count quota.
CPUTIM Accumulated CPU time.
DIOCNT Direct I/O count quota.
ENQCNT Lock request count quota.
FILCNT Open file quota.
PAGFILCNT Paging file quota.
PRCCNT Number of created subprocesses.
TQCNT Timer queue entry quota.
/USED
Controls that the used quota will be displayed. If not specified, the
remaining quota will be displayed.
EXAMPLES:
1. In this example the used quota of process USER_1 are monitored:
$ VIP MONITOR PROCESS QUOTA /USED USER_1
Process ID : 27E145FB VIP - USED PROCESS QUOTA 25-SEP-1996 10:15:01
Process Name : USER_1
Node : MSSDEV 0 25 50 75 100
+---------+---------+---------+----------+
ASTCNT 1 / 100 1% *

BIOCNT 1 / 10000 0%
| | | | |
BYTCNT 0 / 79136 0%
| | | | |
CPUTIM 7280 / Infinite 0%
| | | | |
DIOCNT 0 / 100 0%

ENQCNT 488 / 2000 24% **********

FILCNT 38 / 100 38% ****************

PAGFILCNT 244 / 3776 6% ***

TQCNT 0 / 8 0%

The information in this example includes the following:
o Process identification code
A 32-bit binary value that uniquely identifies a process.
o Process name
A 1- to 15-character string used to identify a process.
o Node name(s)
One or two 1- to 6-character strings used to identify the local node
and remote node.
If the processes on the page that is currently displayed are running
at the local node, only the name of the local node will be displayed.
If the processes on the page that is currently displayed are running
a remote node in an OpenVMS cluster environment two nodenames will
be displayed. The first node indicates the local node, the second
node indicated the remote node where the processes are currently
running. The two node names are separated by a slash character (/).
o Current time
A 23-character string used to show the current time.
o A list of 10 bar graphs for every process quota and updated every
interval which contains:
- Name of quota
- Used quota value
A numeric value which shows how many of the quota has been used.
- Maximum quota value
A numeric value which shows the maximum quota value.
- Used quota percent
A numeric value between 0% and 100% which shows the used quota
percentage.
- Bar graph
A bar graph to visualize the used quota percentage.
2. In this example the used PAGFILCNT quota of process USER_1 are
monitored:
$ VIP MONITOR PROCESS QUOTA/USED/NAME=PAGFILCNT USER_1
Process ID : 27E145FB VIP - USED PROCESS QUOTA Peak value : 25 %
Process Name : USER_1 PAGFILCNT PGFLQUOTA : 80000
Node : MSSDEV 0 25 50 75 100
+--------+--------+--------+---------+
25-SEP-1996 12:37:12 7378 9 % ****
25-SEP-1996 12:37:15 20040 25 % *********
25-SEP-1996 12:37:18 7378 9 % ****
25-SEP-1996 12:37:21 7378 9 % ****
25-SEP-1996 12:37:24 7378 9 % ****
25-SEP-1996 12:37:27 7378 9 % ****
The header information in this example includes the following:
o Process identification code
A 32-bit binary value that uniquely identifies a process.
o Process name
A 1- to 15-character string used to identify a process.
o Node name(s)
One or two 1- to 6-character strings used to identify the local node
and remote node.
If the processes on the page that is currently displayed are running
at the local node, only the name of the local node will be displayed.
If the processes on the page that is currently displayed are running
a remote node in an OpenVMS cluster environment two nodenames will
be displayed. The first node indicates the local node, the second
node indicated the remote node where the processes are currently
running. The two node names are separated by a slash character (/).
o Name of quota
o Peak value
A numeric value which shows the peak used quota percentage since the
first scan.
o Maximum quota value
A numeric value which shows the maximum quota value.
The body information in this example includes the following:
o A bar graph updated every interval which contains:
- Current time
A 23-character string used to show the current time.
- Used quota value
A numeric value which shows how many of the quota has been used.
- Used quota percent
A numeric value between 0% and 100% which shows the used quota
percentage.
- Bar graph
A bar graph to visualize the used quota percentage.
