Split Second Graph: Task Manager CPU Line Graph Workspace Report

This workspace report displays the CPU usage of specific device as a line graph. The device must have Windows credentials specified in Device Properties > Credentials. This workspace report shows current real-time data as well as historical data plotted on the line graph. The graph shows up to x seconds of historical data.

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.

To configure this workspace report in WhatsUp Gold:

1. In the title bar of the workspace report pane, select Menu > Configure. The Configure Report dialog appears.
2. Enter or select the appropriate information in the following fields.
   • Report name. Enter a title for the workspace report. This name appears in the title bar of the workspace report's pane.
   • Device. Select a device for the report by clicking the browse (...) button.
   • Width. Specify how wide, in pixels, the graph or chart should appear.
   • Height. Specify how tall, in pixels, the graph or chart should appear.
   • Refresh interval (seconds). Enter an amount of time (in seconds) for how often you would like the graph to refresh. Essentially, when the graph refreshes, it is polling for more data and then displaying that new data.

   Note: The faster the refresh interval, the more granular the chart data will be. Slower poll intervals will result in data that is more normalized and will have less detail.

   • Data interval (seconds). Enter an amount of time (in seconds) for how long you would like the data in the graph to be displayed. Think of this as the X axis for the graph.

   Note: Specifying larger values for this setting is allowed, but may adversely affect the refresh interval for a graph. The optimum value is determined by the memory and speed of your Web server.

3. Click OK to save changes.

Note: This workspace report can only be used with devices that are WMI-enabled.
