HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor Software - Manual (Page 138)

The performance graph also displays the Dispatch Threshold value that is the threshold value for
which an alarm was configured to be dispatched. The Dispatch Threshold value is displayed for
only one component and metric combination. It is disabled if you choose multiple components and
metrics. The Dispatch Threshold value acts like a watermark and helps you to identify the maximum
threshold limit that was set and the current performance value of the component. Appropriate
legends are displayed to differentiate the component current value from the Dispatch Threshold
value. In the above image, the green line signifies the Dispatch Threshold value. After the
performance graphs are plotted, use the following chart options in the Chart Work Area. In addition,
resize and rearrange the chart windows in the Chart Work Area. For more information on using
the chart options, see
“Plotting charts” (page 236) .

Viewing events
HP XP P9000 Performance Advisor generates events in response to various activities that you

in the Event Log table. For instance, records are logged for events generated when a performance
data collection fails or the collection schedule is restarted. The Event Log screen is displayed when
you click Monitoring+Event Log in the left pane.
IMPORTANT: By default, the Event Log screen displays records for events that have been generated
in the last 24 hours.
