HP UX IPFilter Software manual Creating Reports from Multiple Databases

By default, HP Caliper does not generate a report file when you specify -d. However, you can generate a report file at the same time by specifying -o.

Creating Reports from Multiple Databases

You can use the caliper report merge diff command to:

•Create a report from one or more databases

•Create a report that merges the data from two or more databases

•Create a report that differences the data collected in two databases You can adjust any of the following aspects of the report:

•Volume of data reported (--summary-cutoff and --detail-cutoff and --process-cutoff)

•Metric used to sort the data (--sort-by)

•Which statistics to report (--cpu-details)

•Level of report detail (--report-details)

•Level of description detail (--description-details)

•Amount of source code and disassembly reported (--context-lines)

•Directories searched for source files (--source-path-map)

•Percent columns (total/cumulative) shown (--percent-columns)

•How to group processes and modules with the same basename (--group-by) The syntax for this command is:

caliper report merge diff [report_options] [database(s)]

where report_options is one or more of these options:

•-o (--output-file)

•-r (--report-details)

•--context-lines

•--cpu-details

•--description-details

•--detail-cutoff

•--group-by

•--info

•--[no]inlines

•--per-module-data

•--percent-columns

•--process-cutoff

•--sort-by

•--source-path-map

•--summary-cutoff

and database(s) is one of these:

•[database ... ] (for caliper report)

•[database1 database2 ... ] (for caliper merge)

•database2 database1 (for caliper diff)
