Select Bar Chart View Settings

To use a generic bar chart, select the settings that determine the data that is included in the view. You can select a metric family for reporting and the individual metrics that are included in the chart. You can also select a new title for the view.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Options (gear) icon on the view, and select Edit from the menu.

   The view Settings dialog opens.

2. Change the view Title or Subtitle to reflect the modified view. The Subtitle is already selected if the view appears on an item context page.
3. Select a Metric Family to display in the view.

   For example, select the 'CPU' metric family to see CPU statistics.

4. Select Metric Fields for the bar chart. The available options depend on the metric family you selected.

   Typically, each Metric Field that you select receives a different colored bar in the chart.

5. Select a Metric Sort option.

   Typically, one row in the chart represents each managed item in the data set. The metric you select from the Metric Sort drop-down list represents the first bar on the bar chart.

6. Select a Sort Direction for the metrics in the view. Select Ascending (lowest to highest) or Descending (highest to lowest).

   The Context Settings area shows the group or item context for the view. The option to select another context is not enabled on item context pages.

7. Select the scope of your changes from the Apply Changes drop-down. Select one of the following options:
   • For All Tenant Users: Saves the changes so that they are only available to users associated with your tenant (possibly the Default Tenant).
   • My User Account: Saves the changes to your user account as a default for this view.
   • My Current Session: Reverts the changes when you log out.

   Note: The availability of these options depends on your user account role rights.

8. Click Save.

   The view is refreshed to reflect your updates.
