+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.de CW

+.el \fI\\$1\f1\\$2
+..
+For the instance domain
+.IR indom ,
+in the current
+Performance Metrics Application Programming Interface (PMAPI)
+context,
+locate the instance with the internal instance identifier given
+by 
+.IR inst ,
+and return the full external instance identification via
+.IR name .
+.PP
+The value for the instance domain
+.I indom
+is typically extracted from a
+.CW pmDesc
+structure, following a call to
+.BR pmLookupDesc (3)
+for a particular performance metric.
+.PP
+The space for the value of
+.I name
+will have been allocated in
+.B pmNameInDom
+with
+.BR malloc (3C),
+and it is the responsibility of the caller to
+.BR free (3C)
+the space when it is no longer required.
+.PP
+.B pmNameInDom
+returns zero on success.
