p4 monitor allows a system administrator to observe what Perforce-related processes are running on the Perforce server machine. Each line of output consists of the following fields:
pid status owner hh:mm:ss command [args]
where pid is the process ID under UNIX (or thread ID under Windows), status is R or T depending on whether the process is running or marked for termination, owner is the Perforce user name of the user who invoked the command, hh:mm:ss is the time elapsed since the command was called, and command and args are the command and arguments as received by the Perforce server.
To list current process information, use p4 monitor show. All processes are listed, but only the command (for example, sync, edit, submit) is shown, without arguments. This form of p4 monitor requires list level access.
To show the list of arguments associated with each command, use the -a (arguments) flag or -l (long) flag. These options require admin level access.
To mark a process for termination, use p4 monitor terminate id. This command requires admin level access.
To remove an entry from the monitor table, use p4 monitor clear id. You can clear the entire table with p4 monitor clear all. Both of these forms require admin level access.
See the Global Options section. |
|
-a |
Show all arguments associated with the process (for example, edit file.c, or sync -f //depot/src/...). Perforce user names are truncated to 10 characters, and each line is limited to a total of 80 characters of output. |
-l |
Show all arguments in long form; that is, without truncating user names or the list of command line arguments. |
To turn on server monitoring (requires server restart) |
p4 counter -f monitor 1 |
To turn off server monitoring (requires server restart) |
p4 counter -f monitor 0 |
