The graphs in the Features pages give you a visual picture of your license utilization. Points on the graph graphs indicate the number of licenses used during the indicated time period.

Toggling license usage detail display on/off

For Realtime Feature Usage and Feature Usage History graphs, you can select to hide or show the display of total licenses. In Feature Usage History graphs, you can additionally hide or show used and borrowed licenses. The display of these usage details in the graphs is controlled by toggling the boxes in the Advanced Filtering area (the example below is from the Usage History page's Advanced Filtering area):

Hiding or showing the display of selected usage details on the graph

You can control the display of selected usage details for each graph by clicking the value for which you want to view data in the legend at the top of the chart. For example, clicking the "Total" option on the graph legend will remove the line showing the number of total licenses.

The following graph has total license display disabled (grayed out).

Gaps in collecting data

Empty spaces or "gaps" in the chart indicate periods when License Statistics was not running and data was not being gathered. This can happen due to one or more of the following reasons:

  • the status of the license server has changed
  • an error message about the server status has been recorded in the error log
  • License Statistics has been stopped 

The following Feature Usage History graph from the Usage History report shows periods when data was not collected.

For example, toggling off the "Show total licenses on the graph" box will remove the "Number of licenses" lines from the graph. This can be useful if the license usage is relatively low, because it can make the graph lines easier to read, as shown in the example below. The first graph has total license display toggled on, and the second graph has total license display toggled off.
