System Reporter 2.8

8.4.15.1 value:

<tsecs>

If <tsecs> is non-negative it represents a point in time, expressed as the

number of seconds since January 1, 1970, GMT. For example, to express 2005/07/13 11:00:34 as a <tsecs> value, use the value 1121277634.

If <tsecs> is negative, it represents a point in time <tsecs> seconds before the current time.

NOTE: You can use the sample_times report (see sample_times on page 8.78) to see tsecs values paired with times expressed using an easier-to-read format.

8.4.15.2 example:

The following example specifies an endrange time of 11:00:34 on July 13, 2005:

&endtsecs=1121277634

8.4.16 groupby

Use the groupby option to select what is charted on the category axis

(X-axis). The default for groupby is System, which means that you will see a bar (when using

a barchart) for each system. The value is the total of the metric for the entire system. The groupby option can be used multiple times in the same query string, and when specified

multiple times functions as an OR operation. If an object name exists on more than one system and if System is not selected as a groupby parameter, the resulting metric for that object will

be the aggregate of the metric across all the selected systems that include the object name.

This can be useful, for example if a host is connected to multiple systems and that host is assigned the same name on all those systems. In that case, selecting Host as the groupby

parameter will show that hosts total performance across all systems.

8.4.16.1 values:

Specify one of the following:

System

(Default). When using groupby=System, you will not be able to see the breakdown of the metric for individual components (for example, volumes or hosts) in the system.
