Overview

Within the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) each instance domain is assigned a unique Instance Domain Identifier (pmInDom). Internally a pmInDom is constructed from 2 fields: the domain number (of the associated Performance Metrics Domain Agent, or PMDA) and the serial number (assigned by the PMDA).

pmInDom_build constructs a pmInDom from domain and serial.

pmInDom_domain and pmInDom_serial return the respective fields from indom.
