The Device Data table displays the same information as above, but on a per device basis.
Note: The Percent Available is a weighted average of availability for all data entries. It is not a
simple average of percent availability for each entry. The value for the total availability
percentage is reached by: multiplying the availability percentage with the amount of time
that passed between polls to get a sum for each entry. Add those sums and divide by the
sum of all time periods between polls.
Note: Values displayed in the graph are the average values for the selected time period.
Values displayed in the summary are the minimum, maximum, and average values for the
selected time period. If raw polling data has been averaged into hourly or daily summarized
data, the values for min and average, or maximum and average can be different. In some
cases, they may be very different if there was a period of time when polled values were much
higher or lower than normal.
