Opening the Metrics Database
Start the Metrics Database UI from NEM Desktop by navigating to ‘System -> Metrics Database...’.

to navigate to the Dashboards and click on the newly created Dashboard (as per description in section Launching) to view the PM counter information and collected PM data.
The graph names are self-explanatory. User may choose between 15m and 24h counters by picking either ‘statistic_15m’ or ‘statistic_24h’, depending on the PM data intervals activated n the PM collection job. The time period may be adjusted in the upper right corner.

Give the new cell a name, select
• source (“FROM”), e.g. “network_pm_raw”,
• Filter / _measurement, e.g. “ethernet_counters”,
• Filter / _field, e.g. “rx_octets”,
• Filter / category, e.g. “network_pm_raw”,
and apply the change by clicking on the apply button:
