Before using this tool, please: .IP "\(bu" 4 Read the tool's documentation .IP "\(bu" 4 Review the tool's known \*(L"\s-1BUGS\*(R"\s0 .IP "\(bu" 4 Test the tool on a non-production server .IP "\(bu" 4 Backup your production server and verify the backups .SH "DESCRIPTION" .IX Header "DESCRIPTION" pt-mext executes the \f(CW\*(C`COMMAND\*(C'\fR you specify, and reads through the result one line at a time. It places each line into a temporary file. When it finds a blank line, it assumes that a new sample of \s-1SHOW GLOBAL STATUS\s0 is starting, and it creates a new temporary file. At the end of this process, it has a number of temporary files. It joins the temporary files together side-by-side and prints the result. If \*(L"\-\-relative\*(R" option is given, it first subtracts each sample from the one after it before printing results. .SH "OPTIONS" .IX Header "OPTIONS" .IP "\-\-help" 4 .IX Item "--help" Show help and exit. .IP "\-\-relative" 4 .IX Item "--relative" short form: \-r .Sp Subtract each column from the previous column. .IP "\-\-version" 4 .IX Item "--version" Show version and exit. .SH "ENVIRONMENT" .IX Header "ENVIRONMENT" This tool does not use any environment variables. .SH "SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS" .IX Header "SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS" This tool requires the Bourne shell (\fI/bin/sh\fR) and the seq program. .SH "BUGS" .IX Header "BUGS" For a list of known bugs, see . .PP Please report bugs at .
