Performance Co-Pilot (PCP) is an open-source system performance monitoring tool that can help you detect and diagnose potential issues with your system. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the process of installing PCP on Fedora CoreOS latest, using the command-line interface.
Before installing any software, we need to ensure that our system is up-to-date. To do this, we will use the following command:
sudo dnf update
To install PCP, use the following command:
sudo dnf install pcp
This command may take a few minutes to complete, depending on the speed of your internet connection.
Once the installation is complete, we can verify PCP is installed by running the following command:
sudo systemctl status pmcd
This command will display the status of the PCP Metrics Collection Daemon (pmcd). If it is running, you should see a message like this:
● pmcd.service - Performance Metrics Collector Daemon
Loaded: loaded (/usr/lib/systemd/system/pmcd.service; enabled; vendor preset: disabled)
