Flows Duration Analysis

The Flows Duration Analysis card groups flows according to their duration, i.e. less than 1 minute, more than 1 minute, etc. The unit of measure - seconds, minutes, or hours - and the intervals are configurable.

Refer to the Adding Cards page for detailed steps.

If you move the mouse over the bar, the duration and number of flows that lasted the indicated time will be displayed.

Clicking on the bar of the graph opens the Flows window, which lists all the flows of the selected duration. The Flows window is equipped with a toolbar to easily navigate through results. Columns can be configured by clicking the icon on the top right corner. Columns cannot be sorted but the list can be exported in CSV format by clicking the EXPORT button on the top left corner of the window. A search by filename is also available in this window.

Clicking the 3 dots button in the upper right corner of the card, the following options will appear:

• Settings:
  • Show incomplete flows: Define if incomplete flows must be shown or not. To have this detail, set the option to ON and click the APPLY button. Note that by default this option is not enabled.
  • Mode: Define if the unit of measure must be Seconds, Minutes, or Hours.
  • Intervals: Set the starting unit of measure and the interval applied to the columns of the graph.
• Filter: Filter the data displayed on the card according to the following criteria:
  • From - To: Select the time range in which to collect data. Click the APPLY button to confirm each date selected.
  • Filename: Enter the name of the file for which you want to know how long the transfer took. The specified string will be searched in all filenames, i.e. writing march will return all filenames that contain march anywhere in the filename. The graph will list all flows containing the filename or string entered.
  • Outcome: select SUCCESS, FAILURE or ERROR. Once the filter is applied, the card will display only the results that match the selected criterion.
  • Source: If you want to know the duration of all the flows started from a specific source, enter the name of the source in this field.
  • Destination: If you want to know the duration of all flows that have arrived at a specific destination, enter the name of the destination in this field.
  • Source Queue: If you want to know the duration of all the flows started from a specific source queue, enter its name in this field.
  • Destination Queue: If you want to know the duration of all flows of a specific destination queue, enter the name of the destination queue in the field.
    
    
    In the Filters window, to remove an option, click the red X.
    The RESET button restores default settings.
    
    
    In the Flows Duration Analysis card, when a filter is applied, a funnel icon appears in the upper right corner to indicate that the results shown are a subset of the total. Clicking the funnel icon, all applied filters will be listed. To open the Filters window and edit them directly, click the pencil icon.

    Tip:

    In the Filters window, editable fields (e.g. Filename, Source, Destination, etc.) do not accept wildcard characters. These fields are case insensitive.

You can create as many cards as you need to meet the number of criteria you require. For example, you can create a card for with the duration of all flows transferred and another only for flows in ERROR; or a card with the duration of flows transferred to all destinations and another with the duration of flows transferred to a specific destination. And so on.

• Color: Select a different color for the external border of the card. Click the RESET button to restore default colors.
• Remove: Select the option to remove the card. Note that the card will be removed without any further prompting.
