PMLOOKUPINDOM(3) Library Functions Manual PMLOOKUPINDOM(3)
pmLookupInDom - translate an instance name into an instance
identifier
#include <pcp/pmapi.h>
int pmLookupInDom(pmInDom indom, const char *name);
cc ... -lpcp
For the instance domain indom, in the current Performance Metrics
Application Programming Interface (PMAPI) context, locate the in‐
stance with the external identification given by name, and return
the internal instance identifier.
Only the leading non-space characters of name will be used to
identify the instance.
The value for the instance domain indom is typically extracted
from a pmDesc structure, following a call to pmLookupDesc(3) for a
particular performance metric.
pmLookupInDom will return a positive instance identifier on suc‐
cess.
PM_ERR_INDOM
indom is not a valid instance domain identifier
PM_ERR_INST
The external instance name is not known for the instance
domain indom in the current PMAPI context
PMAPI(3), pmGetConfig(3), pmGetInDom(3), pmLookupDesc(3),
pmLookupInDomArchive(3), pmNameInDom(3), pcp.conf(5) and
pcp.env(5).
