Example discovery command

The discovery command invoked in the previous section is given below.

Note that this example is merely a starting point; there are more

sophisticated ways to collect this information. Also be aware that there

are example discovery commands specifically for SAS users in:

/opt/wlm/toolkits/sas/examples/

In essence, this script:

1. Takes a workload group name on its command line

2. References a file where each line specifies:

• An executable name

• That executable’s profile value

• That executable’s desired duration

3. Makes a list from the file’s executable names

4. Makes a list of active processes for the workload group

5. Checks the lists against each other:

Checks each active process in the workload group to see whether

there is data for it in the file from Step 2

6. Determines the process’s PID if there is a match in Step 5 else

returns to Step 3

7. Prints the process’s PID, profile value, and desired duration

8. Exits

The script is:
