HP NonStop G-Series - Manual (Page 48)

Setting options:
 Metric/Param
 Top “N” (1 to maximum configured for that object type) or “Only” one or
more selected objects. For processes, the maximum number of objects is
different for NonStop and Linux. Linux nodes can view up to 25 processes,
whereas NonStop nodes can only monitor up to 10. When user clicks on
the “Only” radio button followed by the “Select” button, a new window is
displayed that displays two scopes:
o
All available data – List of objects from the trend database for the
current entity.
o
Current Display – List of objects that are currently displayed in the
graph.
Selected list is used as the exclusive set of objects to graph, whether or not there is
data available for them for any selected interval, or as new data is gathered.
 Date / Time to start the display from
 Number of intervals to show on the graph
 Whether the graph floor (minimum value of Y-axis) is set to zero or the
lowest of the displayed values.
 Whether the scale (maximum value of y-axis) is set to the maximum of the
displayed values or all available values in the trend database for the
displayed objects.
Display:
 One line per object per interval
 Objects identified on the legend
Controls:
 Prev and Next buttons to move through available data.
 Pause/Resume switch button to allow the graph to refresh with the latest
data or pause at a static time interval.
 Legend link to click on, in order to set the graph exclusive to that object.
Graph behavior:
 This graph ONLY displays the top N objects, meaning that if a specific object
is not one of the top N objects at a given time, then that object will not
appear in the performance table or the graph for that particular time. If the
user selects a specific instance of an entity, that object most likely was not
always in the top N, so there will be specific intervals in which the entity
