8.4.6.2 example:
The following example specifies that query results are to be displayed in the form of one or
more charts:
8.4.7 charttype
Use the charttype option in conjunction with charttab=chart or charttab=both to
specify the chart type to be used when results are to be displayed in chart form. This option
can only be specified once in a given query string.
8.4.7.1 values:
Specify one of the following:
stackedbars
Specifies that charts will use stacked bars. Stacked charts stack data on top of each other so
you can see the total as well. See Figure 5-12 on page 5.47 for an example of a chart using
stacked bars.
stackedvbars
Specifies that charts will use stacked vertical bars. Stacked charts stack data on top of each
other so you can see the total as well. See Figure 5-13 on page 5.47 for an example of a
chart using stacked vertical bars.
stackedarea
Specifies that charts will use stacked areas instead of stacked bars. See Figure 5-14 on
page 5.48 for an example of a chart using stacked areas.
&charttab=chart
NOTE: Since the total height of the stacked charts ( stackedbars / stackedarea )
is the sum of the individual segments, they are not suitable for some forms of
data. For example, in performance charts, the average service time for I/O is not
the sum of the average service time for reads plus the average service time for
writes. Similarly, the average size for I/O is not the sum of the average I/O size of
reads plus the average I/O size of writes. Therefore, when you select stacked
charts, only the total service times and total I/O sizes are shown. If you want to see
the service times and I/O sizes for reads and writes separately, use bars or lines .
