get average cpu load for all servers monitored

[rnjie]

HEy,
i was wondering if there is a way to get an average data on the cpu load/usage of all the servers i am currently monitoring, is there a tool in place to pull this information?

Hello @rnjie,

On option is to download the performance graph data (for example, CPU Usage for the "Last 365 Days") as CSV. This is done on a "per host/service" basis. Currently, there's not a way to aggregate this data. but this could be a new feature request.

Also, the metrics component, Home > Details > Metrics, will provide a summary table in a dashlet that can be cut and pasted into Excel for averaging.

I hope that helps. Let me know if you have any questions.

thank you, that was so helpful
one last question, i did the metric solution and it gave me the report but i couldn't tell the time period it generated it from, i know there is an option to choose the time period from the graph section, does that also apply to the summary?

Hello @rnjie,

You're most welcome! After digging in further on those results, it's the last check result and not aggregated over time.

Let me know if you any other questions. I can certainly submit a feature request on your behalf to the development team if you'd like.
