HP Caliper User's Guide

--process-cutoff
--process-cutoff percent_cutoff[,cum_percent_cutoff[,min_count]]
Specifies a cutoff value that limits the processes reported in the Process Summary
section of a PMU histogram report. This option is used in conjunction with the
--sort-by metric option, which you can use to specify which metric you want to
be used for sorting and cutoffs.
HP Caliper stops reporting information when it reaches either a percent cutoff or a
cumulative percent cutoff:
• You can limit the report only to processes that exceed a specified percentage of
the total for the sorting/cutoff metric. Once HP Caliper encounters this percent
cutoff, it stops reporting processes.
• You can limit the report by having HP Caliper stop reporting processes once the
cumulative percent of the processes so far listed exceeds the cumulative percent
cutoff value.
You can also specify an integer for the minimum number of processes to be displayed.
percent_cutoff
The percentage of the total for the sorting/cutoff metric
that a given process must exceed to appear on the report.
This is shown as percent cutoff on reports.
Default value is 2.0.
This value takes effect only if the Percent of Total column
is selected for the report.
cum_percent_cutoff
The value of the cumulative percentage at which HP
Caliper stops reporting results. This is shown as
cumulative percent cutoff on reports.
Default value is 100.
This value takes effect only if the Cumulative percent
column is selected for the report.
min_count
Sets the minimum number of processes to be displayed.
This is shown as minimum process entries on reports.
Default value is 5.
If --group-by executable is specified (which is the default), then all processes
with the same basename will have a single entry in the Process Summary.
If --group-by none is specified, then the Process Summary section will potentially
have multiple entries for processes with the same basename.
