SpmiFreeStatSet Subroutine

Purpose

Erases a set of statistics.

Library

SPMI Library (libSpmi.a)

Syntax

#include sys/Spmidef.h

int SpmiFreeStatSet(StatSet)
struct SpmiStatSet *StatSet;

Description

The SpmiFreeStatSet subroutine erases the set of statistics identified by the StatSet parameter. All SpmiStatVals structures chained off the SpmiStatSet structure are deleted before the set itself is deleted.

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.

Parameters

StatSet

Specifies a pointer to a valid structure of type SpmiStatSet as created by the SpmiCreateStatSet subroutine call.

Return Values

The SpmiFreeStatSet subroutine returns a value of 0 if successful. If unsuccessful, the subroutine returns a nonzero value.

Error Codes

All SPMI subroutines use external variables to provide error information. To access these variables, an application program must define the following external variables:

• extern char SpmiErrmsg[];
• extern int SpmiErrno;

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.
