CPU usage plot in Grafana
7,368
This is behaving as expected. Derivative
will give you the change, not absolute value. So negative means your CPU usage went down. The idle, system, user stats are already in percent on unix, so you can display them directly, without usage of derivative
.
If you want to display the average of the last x seconds, to smooth your graph out, use transform -> summarize, and chose avg
as method of summarization.
