Procedure


Step 1

In the left pane, click Insights & Reports > Capacity and Trend Analyzer.

This opens the dashboard where you can view capacity insights across your environment.

Step 2

Use the circular timeline to select a timeframe, such as Current, Past (12 hours, 24 hours, or 48 hours), Next (7 days, 30 days, or 90 days).

  • Current shows active capacity insights.

  • Past 12, 24, or 48 hours show insights from the selected past period.

  • Next 7, 30, or 90 days show predicted capacity risks.

The timeline also displays the total number of devices and their health status, such as Healthy, Needs attention, and High severity.

Step 3

Review the summary panel.

  • Use the Top impacted devices section to identify devices with the most critical capacity issues.

  • Use the Insight highlights section to understand the most common capacity risks across your organization.

Step 4

Review device insights in the Devices section.

  • Search for a device or use filters such as timeframe and severity to locate devices that require attention.

  • Each device displays a summary of detected or predicted issues, along with associated insight tags.

Step 5

Select a device to view detailed insights.

This view provides summaries and detailed insights for the selected device.

Step 6

On the device details page, review the AI summary, Resolved insights, Active insights, and Future insights.

Step 7

In the Device metrics section, select a metric to view historical trends and forecast data.

Step 8

Use the insights and forecasts to determine appropriate actions, such as redistributing traffic, scaling resources, or planning capacity upgrades. After taking action, use the Current view to monitor whether the issue has been resolved.

The Capacity and Trend Analyzer helps you move from reactive troubleshooting to proactive capacity management by enabling you to identify risks early and take informed action.
