The line graph illustrates changes in the I/O rate, the transfer rate, etc.

The vertical axis indicates the usage rates (in percentage). The horizontal
axis indicates dates and/or times.
If you select connected parity groups in the tree, the graph illustrates

changes in disk access performance (e.g., the I/O rate and the transfer
rate) for all the connected parity groups.
Before clicking Draw, use the list at the right corner of the list (just below

the list for specifying the type of statistics) to specify the type of

information that will be displayed in the graph. The list to specify the item
to be displayed is shown below.

statistics you selected. Some items can be selected only when you select

I/O rate (IOPS) or the transfer rate (MB/s). The items you can select in
the list and the corresponding type of statistics are shown in Table 4-1.
