What is the difference between normal charts and Infrastructure charts in dT 6.2?
In dT 6.2, there are charting options available under the Infrastructure link on the left-hand menu. These charts only allow Host Monitoring metrics to be selected, and no custom metrics can be added.
If I use a standard chart, I can also select Host Monitoring metrics, but they don't appear on the graphs. I always see "No measurements Available".
What is the purpose of the Infrastructure charts, and how do I create custom metrics on them?
Derick,
with dT 6.2 there is a global view of infrastructure metrics, independent of the systemprofiles agents are mapped into. Prior to 6.2 you could only show host metrics on a chart that had it's source set to a systemprofile and you would only see host metrics if the agent mapped into that system profile.
The charts listed under Infrastructure are meant to allow a display of these global metrics, whereas you can still display host metrics from a systemprofile with the 'normal' charts.
