Administrators of large, mission-critical environments are expected to be on high vigil 24 x 7, as even seemingly minor aberrations in performance could prove to be fatal for the infrastructure. Particularly, critical components of such infrastructures demand continuous attention. Therefore, it is essential for the monitoring solution in use to report even the smallest of variations in performance of such components, in real-time. Towards this end, the eG monitoring suite provides the Live Graph Display option which displays real-time graphs of key performance metrics related to critical components in the infrastructure, thereby allowing the administrator to keep a constant watch on the measure behavior, observe variations in the measure live, and detect anomalies on-the-fly. Besides, the eG suite provides the option to plot historic data alongside the current data in the graph, so that an effective comparison of the past and the present performance can be performed, and appropriate performance decisions can be easily taken.

To view this page, click on the icon available in the Monitor tab. Then, select the Live option in the Graphs tile.

If custom views pre-exist, then this page displays the live graphs pertaining to the measures configured for that custom view which is set as the default view. If the values reported for a large number of descriptors are plotted in a single graph, the graph would naturally appear cluttered. To view and analyze such live graphs more clearly, just click on the corresponding graph title or on the graph itself. This will automatically enlarge the graph, thus enabling you to view it more clearly.

If only one custom view exists, then the eG Enterprise system will automatically set it as the default view, and the graphs configured for that view will automatically appear.

On the other hand, if no views have been configured yet, then a message to that effect will be displayed in this page. To create a new view, you will have to click on the Click Here hyperlink in the message.

This page can also be accessed by clicking on the View option against a view name in the Live Graph Views page. Also, clicking on the Home button in the Live Graph Display menu will automatically lead you to this page.
