NAME
       pmhostname - report hostname

SYNOPSIS
       $PCP_BINADM_DIR/pmhostname [hostname]

DESCRIPTION
       pmhostname  reports  the name of the host hostname as returned by geth‐
       ostbyname(3N).

       If hostname is not specified, then the local  host  name	 is  retrieved
       using gethostname(2) and this is than passed to gethostbyname(3N).

       pmhostname  provides  a service for shell scripts that mimics the logic
       used by Performance Co-Pilot applications when trying to determine  the
       official name of a host.

       If gethostbyname(3N) fails, the input host name (either hostname or the
       result from calling gethostname(2)) is reported.

PCP ENVIRONMENT
       Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the
       file  and  directory names used by PCP.	On each installation, the file
       /etc/pcp.conf contains the  local  values  for  these  variables.   The
       $PCP_CONF  variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration
       file, as described in pcp.conf(4).
