HP XC System Software User's Guide Version 3.2

Specifying the data file prefix when you invoke the xcxperf utility from the command line
plays back the display according to the recorded data. The following command line plays back
the test.xcxperf data file:
$ xcxperf test
The graphical display differs from the depiction in Figure 7-4because there is an additional
pull-down menu named Control next to the File menu. Choosing the Play... option from the
Control menu opens a dialog box that you can use to control the playback.
For additional information about this utility, see xcxperf(1).
7.5 Plotting the Node Performance Data
The perfplot utility enables you to graph the data from the datafiles generated with the
xcxperf utility. Figure 7-5 is a representation of the output from the perfplot utility for the
DB.n6.xcxperf data file. This data file is created when the xcxperf utility is run with the -o
DB option, as shown here:
$ /opt/xtools/bin/perfplot DB
Node n6 is one of the nodes in the job allocation.
