pmLookupInDom - translate an instance name into an instance identifier

#include<pcp/pmapi.h>intpmLookupInDom(pmInDomindom,constchar*name);cc...-lpcp

       For  the  instance  domain  indom,  in  the current Performance Metrics Application Programming Interface
       (PMAPI) context, locate the instance with the external identification  given  by  name,  and  return  the
       internal instance identifier.

       Only the leading non-space characters of name will be used to identify the instance.

       The  value for the instance domain indom is typically extracted from a pmDesc structure, following a call
       to pmLookupDesc(3) for a particular performance metric.

       pmLookupInDom will return a positive instance identifier on success.

PM_ERR_INDOMindom is not a valid instance domain identifier

       PM_ERR_INST
              The external instance name is not known for the instance domain indom in the current PMAPI context
