Is the dynamic tile fgures an average or actual?

Dashboard Server

The CPU figure doesn't reflect actual on the server. Is it an average of some samples, or CPU at that point in time when the page was rendered?

I’ve also noticed similar with Memory usage.

In the attached screenshot, CPU was actually hanging around 80-90% when I looked, but the dynamic tile kept showing low numbers.

I would assume this is the average, if you click on the server itself, when you choose 7 days for example, you’ll still get the raw data. You can see which values show there.
Then select 30 days, this shows the average values, I would assume you see the values of the dynamic tile.

Hi Darren,

i have checked this at the .json config file for windows server 2012.

I will add the configuration for the CPU:

“objectname”: “Processor Information”,
“countername”: “% Processor Time”,
“aggregateValueType”: “average”,
“resolution”: “raw”,
“timeframe”: {
“type”: “inherit”
}

As you can see jaspervd is right with average :wink:

 

Best wishes

Something still is not right there. If I create a new performance tile of CPU (instead of Dynamic), it also says “average” in the json, even though it’s showing the latest data.
From that tile I get:

“aggregateValueType”: “average”,
“resolution”: “raw”,
“timeframe”: {
“type”: “inherit”
}

So what the aggregateValueType refers to I’m unsure - or what other values may be valid in there.
