Starting the onperf utility and exiting from it

Before you start the onperf utility, set the DISPLAY and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables.

Prerequisite: Set the DISPLAY environment variable as follows:

C shell         setenv DISPLAY displayname0:0 # 

Bourne shell    DISPLAY=displayname0:0 #

In these commands, displayname is the name of the computer or X terminal where the onperf window should appear.

Set the LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable to the appropriate value for the Motif libraries on the computer that is running onperf.

With the environment properly set up, you can enter onperf to bring up a graph-tool window, as described in The onperf user interface.

You can monitor multiple database server instances from the same Motif client by invoking onperf for each database server, as the following example shows:

INFORMIXSERVER=instance1 ; export INFORMIXSERVER; onperf 
INFORMIXSERVER=instance2 ; export INFORMIXSERVER; onperf 
...

Exiting from the onperf Utility

To exit from the onperf utility, use the Close option to close each tool window, use the Exit option of a tool, or choose Window Manager > Close.
