2.4.8 Report files in pie chart format

The report section of a report in pie chart format displays the report details, the graph, and graph introductory-notes table. Depending on the settings, related statistical information can also be displayed. The following figure shows an example of a graph in pie chart format.

The following subsections describe the contents displayed in report files.

Organization of this subsection

(1) Report details

The collection target server name, subresource names, and instance names are displayed as report details.

(2) Graph introductory-notes table

A graph introductory-notes table displays the legend for the display colors of the graph and the subresource or instance names. If the perspective of subresources is used, the columns display instances. If the perspective of instances is used, the columns display subresources.

The number of columns in the graph introductory-notes table can be specified in Introductory-notes Table in the Graph Detail Setup window or the graph_legend_row key in the report definition file. The maximum number of columns that can be displayed is 100. The default is 10.

(3) Graph

The values of subresources and instances are displayed in pie chart format. A graph in this format consists of a graph frame, times, and values.

A graph can be displayed in one of two forms, the perspective of instances or the perspective of subresources, as specified under Report Setting in the Report Type Setup window. For details on Report Setting, see 4.9.5 Report Type Setup window. For either perspective, you can select whether to display values as percentages or as ratios to the base value.

Placing the mouse pointer over a pie chart displays the subresource name and instance name of that pie chart in a tooltip. In the tooltip, these names are displayed in the subresource-name (instance-name) format.

Figure 2-43 shows an example of outputting graphs, from the perspective of subresources, that have values indicated as percentages. Figure 2-44 shows an example of outputting graphs, from the perspective of instances, that have values indicated as percentages. Figure 2-45 shows an example of outputting graphs, from the perspective of subresources, that have values indicated as ratios to the base value. Figure 2-46 shows an example of outputting graphs, from the perspective of instances, that have values indicated as ratios to the base value.

(a) Graph frame

  • If percentage mode is selected, the absolute value of each subresource or instance is used to draw the pie chart. If ratio mode is selected, the ratio of the absolute value of each subresource or instance to the user-specified base value is used to display the pie chart.

    Ratio mode is available if Specify 100% value is selected under Report Setting in the Report Type Setup window. Alternatively, ratio mode is available if the graph_piechart_std key in the report definition file is set to a value that will be displayed as 100%. For details on Report Setting, see 4.9.5 Report Type Setup window. For details on the graph_piechart_std key, see 6.3.21(3) Details of the report conditions definition.

  • A graph is created for each graph interval, and the created graphs are aligned vertically.

  • A maximum of 100 items can be displayed in one graph.

  • Sections and locations without data are displayed as blanks.

  • The maximum number of rows on which graphs can be displayed is the value set in Graph in the Graph Detail Setup window or the value specified in the graph_maxline key in the report definition file. For details on Graph, see 4.9.5(1)(c) For bar graph, stacked bar graph and pie chart, and for details on the graph_maxline key, see 6.3.21(3) Details of the report conditions definition.

(b) Time

The time of each graph interval is displayed in the YYYY/MM/DD hh:mm:ss format.

(c) Value

Values are displayed together with a legend. Fractional values are rounded to the second decimal place. For integer values, the decimal places .00 are added.

(d) Subresource name or instance name

If the perspective of subresources is specified as the graph type under Report Setting in the Report Type Setup window or specified in the format key in the report definition file, the subresource name is displayed. If the perspective of instances is specified, the instance name is displayed.

For details on Report Setting, see 4.9.5 Report Type Setup window. For details on the format key, see 6.3.21(3) Details of the report conditions definition.

(4) Statistics information

For the data for which a report is to be created, the minimum value, maximum value, and average can be output for each subresource and instance as numeric values. If the minimum value or maximum value is a fraction, it is rounded to the second decimal place. If that value is an integer, the decimal places .00 are added.

The settings for outputting the statistics information can be specified in Statistics in the Graph Detail Setup window or the report definition file. For details on Statistics, see 4.9.5(1) Graph Detail Setup window. For details on the graph_statistics_info key, see 6.3.21(3) Details of the report conditions definition. By default, statistics information is not output.

You can select the statistics information format from among the four display formats for report output. The statistics information is displayed below each graph.
