Defining Entities
Each entity descriptor contains these fields:
The remaining fields in a descriptor vary according to entity type. In many fields,
including the
cpu
^
number
field, you can use wild-card values to describe a set of
entities. For example, in a CPU entity descriptor, you can use the literal ALL in the
cpu
^
number
field to specify all CPUs on the system. You can also use the wild-card
character, an asterisk (*), in name fields. (However, when Measure reads from active
counters, the entity descriptor you pass to MEASREADACTIVE must specify only one
entity.)
All disk file, system, device, and process names must be in local internal name format.
If you use an asterisk in a name field or subfield, you must include the appropriate
leading character (\, $, or #) and pad the field with blanks. For an exact definition of
each entity descriptor and its allowable field values, see the description of the
MEASCONFIGURE procedure in the Measure Reference Manual.

file declares some literal identifiers for these numbers. For numeric
identifiers and corresponding literals, see
