DESCRIPTION
The main functionality of cappmpextract is to export ICperf system utilization data for the
specified managed node and import into Capacity Advisor. The user must have Administrator
privileges to run this command. Because ICperf is only available on a Windows CMS, this command
will only work on a Windows CMS.
The cappmpextract command also provides ways of (1) listing ICperf managed nodes which
contains system utilization data; and (2) exporting utilization from data ICperf in a capprofile (4)
format.
cappmpextract also allows the user to import data from non-Matrix Operating Environment
(non-Matrix OE) managed nodes (non-licensed nodes), so long as those nodes are being monitored
by a supported ICperf version. Supported ICperf versions are listed in the Dependencies section
of this command reference page.
OPTIONS
-b start-time -e end-time Specifies the beginning (start-time) and ending
(end-time) dates of data in YYYYMMDD format, where
• YYYY is the year
• MM is the month
• DD is the day
If no beginning and ending dates are provided,
cappmpextract extracts all available data. The user can
not provide only beginning or ending dates.
-h Displays command usage.
-i Imports utilization data for a system into Capacity Advisor
database. Also see the –o option.
-l Lists all ICperf managed nodes, including available data
interval and percent of valid data for each system. Any node
listed by the -l option is a valid node to have its ICperf
data imported into Capacity Advisor with the -i option.
-o Used with the -i option. This allows cappmpextract to
overwrite existing data.
-p Indicates that the workload whose data is being imported
is a non-Matrix OE workload. This provides an alternative
to importing ICperf data from non-Matrix OE licensed
