Viewing historical data with Graph History
Use the Graph History task in IBM® Navigator for i to view historical performance data.
The Graph History task is included in IBM Navigator
for i and is used to display the historical performance data
collection created by Collection Services. To view the historical performance data, follow these
steps:
- Select from your IBM Navigator for i window. An initial chart is displayed based on the default settings.
- Select what you want to display by changing the fields in the context pane.
- Click Refresh to display the graph.
After you launch Graph History, the chart displays a series of graphed collection points. These collection points on the graph line are identified by two different graphics that correspond to the two levels of data:
- A square collection point represents a data point where detail data is available for displaying the top contributors and properties information.
- A circular collection point represents a data point where only summary data is available, so no top contributors or properties information can be shown.
To view the top contributors of a particular data point, select a square data point to display the Top Contributors chart. To view the properties of one of the top contributors, select the bar next to a top contributor to display the Properties pane for that top contributor.
