collectl2pcp - import collectl data to a PCP archive

collectl2pcp  reads  raw  collectl(1)  data  from  each  file and creates a new PCP archive with basename
       archive.  Each input file may be gzipped (with .gz suffix).  The PCP archive and at least one input  file
       are required arguments.

       The available command line options are:

       -f, --force
            Overwrite archive (and the index and meta files) if it already exists.

       -v, --verbose
            Report  progress  and errors verbosely.  This also reports a count of unsupported metric data in the
            collectl(1) input file(s), which is normally silently skipped.

       -?, --help
            Display usage message and exit.

       file [file ...]
            These are the collectl(1) input files.  If more than one is given, they must contain  data  for  the
            same  host  and  be  given  in  time-stamp  chronological order on the command line.  Note that when
            collectl(1) is run as a service, it normally creates files with date  based  names  that  will  sort
            chronologically (e.g. /var/log/collectl/*.gz will be sorted correctly).

       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(5).

       For environment variables affecting PCP tools, see pmGetOptions(3).
