5.3 Analyzing data using Metric Graphs
The metric graphs shown for devices and groups added to Monitoring List are a convenient way to identify
any outliers. Using the graph and the duration options (6 Hours, 12 Hours, 1 Day, 7 Days, 1 Month, 3 Months,
6 Months and 1 Year) you can identify any sudden spikes in the consumption that might have occurred
recently or in the past.
For example, in the graph shown below, you can identify that the consumption of this device is increased over
the last 2 days and further corrective actions can be taken based on these values.
This analysis provides a Data Center Administrator an assistance with finding the optimum operating resource
consumption for their servers for power, temperature and other utilizations considering the system load.
