Article Summary
The Citrix NetScaler Report lets you analyze the usage trends of the NetScaler appliance in your organization. For the selected time frame, the report presents data about past activity and performance, either individually for each appliance or in summary form for all selected appliances.
You can use the report to answer questions like:
- Which NetScalers were available during the selected time period?
- Is the workload shared evenly among the organization's NetScalers?
- Were there any configuration changes on our NetScaler appliances and, if so, when did they occur?
- Is a NetScaler itself causing bottlenecks?
Select a Graph Display Mode
Set whether to plot all selected appliances on the graphs individually, or as a summary of all selected appliances.
One Line - Summary plots all selected appliances as a single line. If the metric is a percentage, the value is the average of the percentages of all selected appliances. For all other metrics, the value is the sum of the average values of all selected appliances.
One Line - Per Appliance plots all selected appliances individually. The graph display mode does not affect the grid at the bottom of the report.Note
