Using various options it helps a user to analyze useful information related to the zone availability for different numa nodes.This file display information about memory zones. This is useful for analyzing virtual memory behavior.By default .B pcp-zoneinfo reports live data for the local host. The statistics shown are as follows: .TS cfB s lfB lfB l lx.

The default is to use the timezone of the local host. .TP \fB\-Z\fR \fItimezone\fR, \fB\-\-timezone\fR=\fItimezone\fR Use .I timezone for the date and time. .I Timezone is in the format of the environment variable .B TZ as described in .BR environ (7). .TP \fB\-?\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR Display usage message and exit. .SH NOTES .B pcp-zoneinfo collects information from .BR /proc/zoneinfo and aims to be command line and output compatible with it. .SH PCP ENVIRONMENT Environment variables with the prefix \fBPCP_\fP are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each installation, the file \fI/etc/pcp.conf\fP contains the local values for these variables. The \fB$PCP_CONF\fP variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration file, as described in \fBpcp.conf\fP(5). .PP For environment variables affecting PCP tools, see \fBpmGetOptions\fP(3). .SH SEE ALSO .BR PCPIntro (1), .BR pcp (1), .BR pmParseInterval (3) and .BR environ (7).
