Changing the X-Axis range on a custom view?
My guess is you're overloading your chart with too much data. I just tried it out, and increasing the bin size seems to correct it. 1sec is pretty extreme anyway for a chart anyway. 1min or even 5min uses the same data and should display the chart fine.
Brian,
Being able to look at resource usage in 1 second bins is not an unreasonable or unusual requirement. 5 minute bins that show a flat 20% usage of disk or memory or CPU can represent a normal load, or it can represent a normal 10% load plus a bad spike that is pegging the resource for 30 seconds straight once every 5 minutes and having a major impact on end users and one's business. Ops engineers need to be able to look at and visualize historical logs non-aggregated.
MicrosoftActually, bin of 1sec gives me a warning in the Advanced Portal. Averaging on 1min should still show spikes and be suitable for analysis. Most of the perf data isn't sampling at 1sec anyway. Keep in mind that you can also configure alert rules on near real time perf data to quickly identify anomolies as well.
