NAME         top

       pmUnloadNameSpace - unload a local performance metrics name space
       for an application

C SYNOPSIS         top

       #include <pcp/pmapi.h>

       void pmUnloadNameSpace(void);

       cc ... -lpcp

DESCRIPTION         top

       If   one   has   previously   loaded  a  local  Name  Space  using
       pmLoadNameSpace(3)  or   pmLoadASCIINameSpace(3),   then   calling
       pmUnloadNameSpace(3)  will  free up the memory associated with the
       Name Space and force all subsequent PMNS routine calls to use  the
       distributed  PMNS.  If pmUnloadNameSpace(3) is called before call‐
       ing pmLoadNameSpace(3) or pmLoadASCIINameSpace(3),  then  it  will
       effectively do nothing.
