Show Related Measurement
Select Show Related Measurement to configure and display detailed measurement on
demand reports.
When you select an object in a grid or graph and then select Show Related
Measurement, an ASAP Measurement control panel is displayed with the options
shown below. This allows a detailed measurement to be configured and started. Upon
completion, it provides a series of in-depth reports that are automatically displayed in a
report window. An explanation of the Show Related Measurement control panel
options follows:
Node dropdown controls the Node name to be analyzed.
Entity dropdown controls the Entity to be analyzed.
Object dropdown controls the Object to be analyzed. The initial node, entity, object
values are for the object you initially selected.
TopN dropdown controls the number of busiest components displayed for the selected
object. For example, if you select a value of 10 for the TopN dropdown and the object
is a disk, the 10 busiest files on that volume and the 10 busiest processes for that
volume are displayed in sorted order from most busy to least busy.
Seconds dropdown controls the measurement interval in seconds. If you are
comparing data to ASAP you should use the same sample interval as ASAP, which is
the default. Otherwise you can pick a shorter or longer interval. (You are limited to one
measurement at a time to protect use of system resources).
Sync checkbox synchronizes the measurement to start-stop in sync with the ASAP
sample interval. This option can used for comparative analysis of stats.
Raw checkbox displays raw output, most likely not desired.
Start button starts the measurement and analysis.
Cancel cancels the Show Related Measurement dialog.
Help button displays online help
To display advanced options select the down arrow. It is strongly recommended you
not change any of the values for the advanced ASAP Measure settings.
Reports appear in a normal ASAP report window, which are tiled along with other
report windows. The progress bar at the bottom shows measurement status and
details.
Correlate as... you can click on the Status Bar portion of a Show Related
Measurement report window and menu items named… Correlate as… . Select one of
these to display a correlation analysis between the measurement and ASAP data.
Correlate as… is an advanced feature primarily intended for ASAP quality assurance
and development purposes.
