Copy a Real-Time Statistics Graph

Copy a real-time statistics graph as a Portable Network Graphic (PNG) file to import the file directly into another program such as word processing application.

You can copy, save, or print a real-time statistics graph as a file when the graph is displayed in the Real Time Statistic Graph dialog. For example, if you are reviewing CPU Statistics, a graph for either Percent Time in Kernel or Total Time Busy is displayed in the Controller CPU Real Time Statistics dialog. You can copy, save, or print that graph as a PNG file.

Copied, saved, or printed graphs provide a snapshot of the statistics shown at one point in time.

  1. Choose a function where real-time statistic graphs are available:
    • System > Reporting and Statistics > Drive Group Statistics

    • System > Reporting and Statistics > CPU Statistics

    • SAN > Statistics and Trending > LUNs

    • SAN > Statistics and Trending > Controller Protocols

  2. Select one of the following actions to access the real-time graph function:
    • Actions > Controller CPU Real Time Statistics

    • Actions > Drive Group Real Time Statistics

    • Actions > LUN Real Time Statistics

    • Actions > FC Port Real Time Statistics

    • Actions > iSCSI Port Real Time Statistics

  3. Click Add Graph, select a statistic, and click OK.
  4. Click inside the graph, and then click the right mouse button to modify the graph.
    A menu is displayed with choices for modifying the graph.
  5. Click Copy and import the PNG file into the application, such as a word processing application.
The image file of the chart is inserted into the application.
