This screen tracks the number of active users attached to the
database over a period of time.
The Active User Chart screen graphically portrays the number of
currently active users attached to the database over a measured
period of time. The slope of the line can be used to visually
identify the rate at which users attach to or detach from the
database.
The screen is also useful for determining when the configured
number of users is overly large for the number of users that are
actually attached to the database at any given moment.
The number of active users is portrayed as a percentage of the
maximum configured for the database, designated along the left-
hand side of the screen.
The screen refresh sample rate is identified at the bottom of
the screen. Directly above the screen refresh rate is a series
of timestamps. Each timestamp represents the time for the end of
each block.
Note that the rightmost timestamp displayed may not be the latest
time; this occurs because the output of the screen wraps around
to the leftmost edge after writing to the rightmost edge.
The current time is designated by the cursor along the bottom
horizontal axis. Everything to the right of the current time is
the end of the previous pass.
The graph output consists of a single numeric digit being written
once per the specified sample rate. The numeric digit corresponds
to the "nth" percentage of the particular percentage category.
If a digit is not displayed for a given cycle, this means that
there are no actively attached processes for the database, on any
node.
This screen is not recorded in the binary output file produced
using the Output qualifier. Consequently, this screen is
not available when you replay a binary file using the Input
qualifier.
