Line Graph Report Viewing Options

If your report is in Line Graph format, you have several options for viewing the data. Several buttons used for accessing the options are located at the top of the report window. First, click the desired point on a graph, then click one of the following buttons:

• Disabled – Deactivates the mouse so a click on any line in the graph does not register.

• Zoom – Enlarges, or zooms, the area selected on any line. Either click the desired point, or draw a lasso around a series of points for which you want more detail. The area selected appears in enlarged detail.

• Alarms – A second window appears that contains a tabular report providing alarm details for the date range specified in the report request.

• Processes – A second window appears that contains two tabular reports providing detail about processes. One report is titled the Top 10 CPU Processes, and the other is titled Top 10 Memory Processes. The report information is for the time represented by the data point nearest to the point selected on the line. Process data is logged every 15 minutes. Process data is available only for the last 8 days.

• Reset Zoom – Resets the graph orientation back to the initial starting point.

Customizing Line Graph Reports

Once you have run a report in line graph format, you can further customize the appearance of the report. From the Edit menu, choose Customize Graph. The options are the same as when completing a new custom report template. The difference is that the customizing options you select after running a report apply only to that report. You cannot save the changes, but you can post the customized report to a Sun Management Center web server for viewing or printing.
