Options
-b begin-time Specifies the time to begin using profile data. If omitted, the first available
profile time is used.
-c Checks an import file without importing its data. This checks for duplicate
sample times, sample times not aligned to hours, improperly formatted
samples, samples with negative values, and missing samples. A message is
issued for each inconsistency noted.
-e end-time Specifies the time to stop using profile data. If omitted, the last available
profile time is used.
Begin-time and end-time are defined as YYYYMM[DD[hh[mm]]] as
follows:
Meaning Units
Year (for example, 2005) YYYY
Month of the year (01-12) MM
Day of the month (01-31) DD
Hour of the day (00-23) hh
Minute of the hour (00-59) mm
If a day, hour or minute field is omitted, its value defaults to zero.
-h Displays command usage.
-i Imports utilization data for a workload or system. The capprofile command
reference pages describe the format of the text representation of the imported
data. The imported text is read from standard-in (stdin). If any data
already exists for the workload or system, the -o option must be specified as
well. Also see the -o and -S options.
-l Lists profile summaries. By default, this is a list of the systems and workloads
that have any profile data.
•
Use -ln to list the profileIDs (the name or unique identification of
the profile).
•
Use -lt (the default) to list profileIDs and available history.
•
Use -lv to list profileIDs, available history, and percent valid.
-m Marks utilization data as valid (v) or invalid (i) for a specified system or a
group of systems or workloads. When a data range is specified, only data
within that range will be affected. If no date range is specified, all data is
marked. Specify the utilization data to be marked by date range. Marking
data by a date range marks every sample in the specified range. Marking
utilization data invalid does not remove or alter it; Capacity Advisor just
ignores it. Marking utilization data invalid excludes all utilization values
(CPU, memory, disk or network I/O, and power) from consideration. You
cannot, for example, mark invalid only the CPU utilization portion of a
sample.
Use -m i to mark data for a specified interval and profileID as invalid; use
-m v
to mark data as valid.
-o When used with the -i option, overwrites existing data where there is an
overlap in the date range of the import data and the date range of the
existing data. If there is no overlap, no overwrite occurs, though the user will
see a message informing of the possibility of an overwrite occurring.
