HP Matrix Operating Environment Software - Manual (Page 38)

6 The utilization meter (bar graph) displays network I/O throughput data, if available. The data
is a 5-minute average that is calculated and updated on 5-minute boundaries. If the data
cannot be displayed, the meter is dimmed (as in the meter in the next box below) and a label
indicates the probable cause. For a description of meter labels, see
“Utilization meter
status/error information” (page 117) .
Using VM Manager with Matrix Operating Environment for HP-UX, you can click a meter to
view a snapshot of Capacity Advisor historical data for network I/O; this feature is not provided
when using VM Manager from HP SMH.
For more information about using VM Manager to collect and view utilization data, see
Chapter 7 (page 105) .

select an action from one of the menus available on the VM Manager menu bar.
