Hi,

This data is collected, but it's not displayed by default on the trends
page. It's actually in the "vmstat4" graph (assuming a Linux server).

Easiest way to get to it is to click the 'trends' dot, drill down to the
"CPU Utilization" graph (not the Load Average one), then find 'vmstat' in
the URL and add a 4 onto it.

To add it and the other hidden vmstat outputs to the automatically display
for a given host, add
"TRENDS:*,vmstat:vmstat1|vmstat2|vmstat3|vmstat4|vmstat5" to its line in
hosts.cfg

To add it globally (or for all subsequent host entries), you can also add
that to a host named "0.0.0.0       .default."



HTH,
