Start the DECwindows Motif Interface

To use the windowing interface, the Performance Manager does not need to be installed or running on a workstation. The windowing interface can be started and directed to your workstation by setting host to the node or cluster where the Performance Manager is installed, and issuing the commands:

$ SET DISPLAY/CREATE/NODE=mynode
$ ADVISE/INTERFACE=MOTIF
 or
$ ADVISE/DECWINDOWS

Note: If the fonts required by the Performance Manager interface are not present, a warning appears listing the expected font names. All fonts used can be redirected to those available in your environment by modifying the Performance Manager resource, DECPS$RESOURCES.DAT.

For any font not available, the DECwindows tool kit provides a “best fit” substitute which may alter the intended presentation. For more information about the Resource File, see the Installation Guide.
