You can customize the panel to show data for metrics that interest you the most.

  • Memory usage. (default) Memory usage, as a percentage
  • Processor power consumed Power consumption, in Watts, by all processors
  • Processor temperature. Temperature, in Celsius, for each processor
  • Processor usage. (default) Processor usage, as a percentage

Current usage metrics

The Usage panel shows the amount available (pale color), highest usage (vivid color), and average usage (black diamond) for each component during the last hour.

Hover over the bar for each component to view more usage details, including the amount available, percentage of average usage, and percentage of maximum usage.

The bar color indicates whether the usage exceeds the thresholds.
  • Green. The actual usage is less than the warning threshold. The default threshold is 80% of the available amount.
  • Amber. The actual usage is between the warning and critical threshold.
  • Red. The actual usage is greater than the critical threshold. The default threshold is 90% of the available amount.

Data for each metric is kept for the last 90 days.

You can see the maximum usage trends over time by clicking the Usage panel title to display the Usage page. This page shows minimum, maximum, and average (black diamond) usage for each component over time. The color (green, amber, or red) indicates whether the maximum usage exceeds the thresholds.

Usage during the last hour is displayed by default. You can change the time span to show usage during the last 24 hours, 30 days, or 90 days. You can also scroll forwards and backwards in time, based on the selected period, using the scroll icons.

Tip
Data is aggregated and assigned to the next unit of time. For example, hourly data from 10:00 – 10:59 is aggregated and assigned to 11:00, and daily data from May 2 24:00 – 23:59 is aggregated and assigned to May 3.
