View MBG Metrics

The Metrics page contains a collection of data and statistics pertaining to the system.

Viewing the Metrics

To view MBG system metrics:

• On the MBG main page, click the System tab, and click Metrics.

Information is displayed in graphical format for seven different system functions. Using the screen tools, you can Change the Date/Time range and Zoom in to view data in detail for each function.

Changing the Date/Time Range

By default, one hour's worth of data is displayed for each graph. You can change this to display data for the last day, week, month or year.

To change the Date/Time range for any graph:

• Click the sign to shrink the reporting interval.
• Click the sign to expand the reporting interval down.

Zooming in to Data

You can zoom in to a particular spot on a graph in order to examine the data more carefully.

To zoom in to data for any graph:

• Hold down the left button on your mouse to select the data you wish to view in detail. When you release the mouse button, the graph will be resized to display the data you have selected.
• To return the graph to its regular view, click Reset zoom. The graph will display data for a complete hour, day, week, month or year.

Updating the Auto-refresh Setting

By default, the metrics data is refreshed every minute. You can disable this functionality so that the information remains unchanged while you are viewing the MBG metrics screen.

To update the auto-refresh interval:

• Select Auto-refresh graphs every minute to cause the data to be refreshed automatically.
• Clear Auto-refresh graphs every minute to cause the data to remain unchanged. Note that if you exit and return to the Metrics screen, the “auto-refresh” setting will be enabled again.
