About the Memory Utilization report

This performance monitor report displays memory utilization collected during the selected time period from the device displayed at the top of the report.

Configure the data collection for a device by right-clicking a device in the Device list and selecting Properties > Performance Monitors > Memory Utilization.
Configure the data collection for a group by selecting a group from the Device list, selecting Bulk Field Change > Performance Monitors, and then making a selection from the Memory menu.

Note: To ensure that your data collection is uninterrupted in the occurrence of a re-index, be sure to change the Determine uniqueness by option in the Advanced Data Collection settings for this performance monitor to description.

Monitor report body for group reports

The group report displays a list of all devices in the group and the current memory utilization for each memory type in each monitored device. To view the Memory Utilization monitor report for a specific device, click the memory type displayed in the Description column. WhatsUp Gold opens the CPU Utilization device report for that device.

Monitor report body for devices

Below the date/time picker is a graph showing the memory utilization for the selected time period. Each point on the graph corresponds with an entry in the graph data table below.

When multiple memory types are present in the selected device, the following selections are available from the Memory menu:

The Memory menu lists all available memory types in the device. You can select any type and view utilization information for that memory.
All Memory. A combined graph displaying utilization for all memory types.

Split Second Graphs - Real-Time Memory Utilization for devices

Under the main report graph is a Split Second Graph that displays real-time memory utilization data.

Note: Split Second Graphs are not available in WhatsUp Gold Standard Edition.

Note: Split Second Graphs are not available in VMware host reports.

Note: When viewing information for devices running Microsoft Windows, information gathered via WMI is displayed in real time. Information gathered by SNMP, however, may reflect a delay of one minute or more. This delay is caused by a limitation in how often Microsoft Windows updates SNMP values.

Below the Split Second Graph, the report displays the average memory utilization collected during the time period:

Total Size. The total amount of memory on the device being monitored.
Min Used. The minimum amount of memory in use on the device.
Max Used. The maximum amount of memory in use on the device.
Avg Used. The average amount of memory in use on the device during the time period.
Min Utilization %. The minimum disk utilization percentage experienced.
Max Utilization %. The maximum disk utilization percentage experienced.
Avg Utilization %. The average disk utilization percentage across all sample data for this time period.

Note: Values displayed in the graph are the average values for the selected time period. Values displayed in the summary are the minimum, maximum, and average values for the selected time period. If raw polling data has been averaged into hourly or daily summarized data, the values for min and average, or maximum and average can be different. In some cases, they may be very different if there was a period of time when polled values were much higher or lower than normal.

You can verify your report rollup settings on the WhatsUp Gold console via Program Options > Report Data.
