Returns a decoded value based on the type of data value extracted from the data field of an SpmiStatVals structure.
SPMI Library (libSpmi.a)
#include sys/Spmidef.h
float SpmiGetValue(StatSet, StatVal) struct SpmiStatSet *StatSet; struct SpmiStatVals *StatVal;
The SpmiGetValue subroutine performs the following steps:
This subroutine call should only be issued after an SpmiGetStatSet subroutine has been issued against the statset.
This subroutine is part of the server option of the Performance Aide for AIX licensed product and is also included in the Performance Toolbox for AIX licensed product.
Specifies a pointer to a valid structure of type SpmiStatSet as created by the SpmiCreateStatSet subroutine call.
Specifies a pointer to a valid structure of type SpmiStatVals as created by the SpmiPathAddSetStat subroutine call or returned by the SpmiFirstVals or SpmiNextVals subroutine calls.
The SpmiGetValue subroutine returns the decoded value if successful. If unsuccessful, the subroutine returns a negative value that has a numerical value of at least 1.1.
All SPMI subroutines use external variables to provide error information. To access these variables, an application program must define the following external variables:
If the subroutine returns without an error, the SpmiErrno variable is set to 0 and the SpmiErrmsg character array is empty. If an error is detected, the SpmiErrno variable returns an error code, as defined in the sys/Spmidef.h file, and the SpmiErrmsg variable contains text, in English, explaining the cause of the error. See the List of SPMI Error Codes for more information.
