Description

Total View button.

Clicking this button displays a total view of the problem events. The information displayed in the graph can be either of the following, depending on whether the Summary View or Split View button is selected:

  • Total Summary: When the Summary View button is also selected; in this case, the graph presents the total number of events on all the selected logs

  • Total Split: When the Split View button is also selected; in this case, the graph presents each of the members (based on the view: logs/applications/servers) individually with its own problems mapped over time. In the background, the total summary graph is presented.

On top of either graph, you can see measurement points in different colors that indicate problems of varying severities:

  • Green: no problems were found at that time.

  • Yellow: problems of low severity (at most) were found at that time.

  • Orange: problems of medium severity (at most) were found at that time.

  • Red: problems of high severity were found at that time.

Note: A severity level is assigned to all problems automatically by Analytics. On the other hand, users determine the severity level of predefined problems and server metrics.

Hovering the mouse over a measurement point, presents a summary of all the problems that were detected at that time.

  • Risk Split: When the Split View button is also selected. For each time slot, each bar level represents the maximal severity that was found at that time for a specific member (based on the view –logs/applications/servers).
