User-defined graphs
You can modify the predefined graphs to create your own customized graphs (see ”Customizing basic
monitoring graphs” on page 121 for more information). These user-defined graphs can be added and
saved to canvas configurations, as described on page 126.
Canvas configurations
A canvas is a saved configuration of graphs. The graphs can be either the Advanced Web Tools
predefined graphs or user-defined graphs. Each canvas can hold up to eight graphs per window, as
shown in Figure 40. Up to 20 canvases can be set up for different users or different scenarios. Each
canvas is saved with a name and an optional brief description.
