About the Disk Utilization: Last Polled Value (Specific Disk) report
This home-level dashboard report provides graphical illustration of disk utilization for a device at the time of the last poll. Placing this dashboard report in a dashboard will allow you to view disk status quickly, even from across the room.
There are five types of graphs to choose from:
- . A 3-D pie graph that displays available disk space in green, and used space in red.
- . A semi-circle graph (much like a car speedometer) with a pointer that indicates the disk percentage used.
- . A horizontal bar graph (much like a ruler) with a pointer that indicates the disk percentage used.
- . A vertical bar graph (much like a thermometer) with a pointer that indicates the disk percentage used.
- . A numerical representation of the disk percentage used. The percentage is displayed in colors that coincide with the WhatsUp threshold colors:
- . Above 90%
- . Between 80% and 90%
- . 80% or less
Along with the various types of graphs to choose from, you can also pick the display size of the graph (small, medium, or large).
Under each type of graph, the disk size is listed in MBs, along with the percentages for used and free space.
