Usage History
The Usage History page shows your account’s resource trends over time: CPU, RAM, processes, disk space, and inodes. Each chart is live-loaded and lets you change the time window (last 5 minutes → last 7 days) to spot spikes and patterns.
Who can use this
The signed-in account owner. Resellers/admins can view your graphs for troubleshooting.
What you’ll see
• One accordion panel per resource: CPU usage, RAM Memory usage, User processes, Disk usage, Innodes usage.
• A time-range dropdown (top-right of each panel).
• An interactive area chart—hover to see exact values and timestamps (your local time).
How to use it
1) Open the panel you care about (e.g., CPU usage).
2) Pick a time range from the dropdown (e.g., “Last 60 minutes”).
3) Hover the line to read values; drag on the chart to zoom (if your browser supports it), then click outside to reset.
4) Switch between panels to compare periods (e.g., CPU spike vs RAM spike).
What each chart means
• CPU usage (%) — How much processing power your account used. Short spikes are normal on traffic; sustained high values suggest heavy plugins, imports, or cron jobs.
• RAM Memory (MB) — Memory used by your PHP/processes. If it climbs near your plan limit, pages may slow or fail.
• User processes — Number of running processes under your user. Hitting the cap can cause new requests to queue/fail.
• Disk usage (MB) — Total space used. Growing steadily? Check backups, caches, and logs.
• Innodes usage — Count of files/folders. Even with free MB, too many files can block writes.
Reading patterns (quick cues)
• Repeating peaks every hour → a cron job or scheduled cache purge.
• CPU climbs while RAM stays flat → CPU-bound work (compression, image transforms).
• RAM and processes spike together → burst traffic or an inefficient script.
• Disk rises daily at the same time → backups/exports piling up.
Units & time
• CPU in %, RAM/Disk in MB, Processes and Inodes are counts.
• Timestamps are shown in your browser’s local timezone.
If something looks off
• Open Error Log for loops/fatal errors.
• Clear caches; disable heavy plugins/themes temporarily; review cron frequency.
• Free space with Disk Usage and File Manager (remove old backups/logs).
• If you regularly hit limits, consider upgrading your plan.
Troubleshooting
• Chart blank/stuck on “Loading”: refresh the page; try a shorter time range.
• Numbers feel “behind”: data collection is periodic; allow a few minutes for updates.
• Browser time mismatch: system logs may be server time; the charts follow your local time.
