<div><p>Contains a description of the available options for managing
and displaying records of performance data.</p>
<p>Graph history displays data contained in the collection objects created
by Collection Services. Therefore, the type and amount of data available is
dependent on your Collection Services configuration.</p>
<p>The amount of data that is available to be graphed is determined by the
settings that you selected from the Collection Services properties, specifically
the collection retention period. Use <span class="keyword">iSeries™ Navigator</span> to
activate PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> over multiple
systems. When you activate PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span>,
you can use the graph history function to see data that was collected days
ago, weeks ago, or months ago. You go beyond the realtime monitor capabilities,
and have access to summary or detailed data. Without PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> enabled,
the graph data field supports 1 to 7 days. With PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> enabled,
you define how long your management collection objects remain on the system:</p>
<ul><li><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><span class="uicontrol">Detailed data</span> (attribute type *PFR
in QMPGDATA.LIB or QPFRDATA.LIB)<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span><p>The length of time that management
collection objects remain in the file system before they are deleted. You
can select a specific time period in hours or days, or you can select <span class="uicontrol">Permanent</span>.
If you select <span class="uicontrol">Permanent</span>, the management collection
objects will not be automatically deleted.</p>
</li>
<li><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><span class="uicontrol">Graph data</span> (attribute type *PFRDTL
in QMGTC2.LIB)<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> <p>The length of time that the details and properties
data that is shown in the Graph History window remains in the system before
it is deleted. If you do not start PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span>,
you can specify one to seven days. If you do start PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span>,
you can specify 1 to 30 days. The default is one hour.</p>
</li>
<li><span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><span class="uicontrol">Summary data</span> (attribute type *PFRHST
in QMGTC2.LIB)<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span> <p>The length of time that the data collection points
of a graph can be displayed in the Graph History window or remain in the system
before they are deleted. No details or properties data is available. You must
start PM <span class="keyword">iSeries</span> to enable
the summary data fields. The default is one month. <span><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />The summary
data is summarized in one-hour intervals and does not support second- and
third-level details.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></span></p>
</li>
<li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><span class="uicontrol">Graph history status</span><p>The Graph History
window now displays the graph history status. You also can re-create the graph
history data if it is missing.</p>
