Starting and stopping the performance monitoring tool

You can start and stop the performance monitoring tool using the following commands:

Starting the performance monitoring tool

Use the systemctl start pmsensors command to start performance monitoring on a node.

Use the systemctl start pmcollector command on a node that has the collector.

Stopping the performance monitoring tool

Use the systemctl stop pmsensors command to stop sensor service on all nodes where active.

Use the systemctl stop pmcollector command to stop collector service on nodes where GUI is installed.

Note:

The systemctl commands only work for systems that use systemd scripts. On systems that use sysv initialization scripts, you must use the service pmsensors and service pmcollector commands instead of the systemctl commands.
