DESCRIPTION
The main functionality of cappmpextract is to export PMP system utilization data for the
specified managed node and import into Capacity Advisor. The user must have administrator
privileges to run this command. Because PMP 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 PMP managed nodes which
contains system utilization data; and (2) exporting utilization from data PMP in a capprofile (4)
format.
cappmpextract also allows the user to import data from non-Insight Dynamics (non-ID)
managed nodes (non-licensed nodes), so long as those nodes are being monitored by a supported
PMP version. Supported PMP 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 PMP 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 PMP
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-Insight Dynamics workload. This provides an
alternative to importing PMP data from non-ID licensed
systems to use in Capacity Advisor scenarios. Non-ID
