Hi All,

I'm using OEM 10.2.0.2 and am having a problem with a couple of agents.

If, on the Agent's main page, I click on "Alert History" I see the Metric 
"Count of targets not uploading data" I can see, in bar graph format, lots of 
red vertical lines indicating critical state in the last 24 hour.  The pattern 
is "random" but sometimes several an hour and sometimes 3 or more hours go by 
without any.

However, if I click on the bar graph and get the same information in tabular 
format there are much, much fewer incidents (maybe 1 or 2 per day).   Given the 
collection schedule is 240 minutes, I can't see how this metric is appearing in 
the bar graph several times an hour.  The tabular data looks much more as I'd 
expect it.

Furthermore, on one agent, I think I've cured the problem with the uploads and 
I see no alerts either in the bar graph (view data: last 24 hours) or tabular 
form, yet when I look at the bar graph (view data: last 7 days) I do still see 
red error lines which appear *within* the last 24 hours.

Therefore, my question is, where is the data coming from in the repository to 
draw the bar graph?  If I could see the raw data I'd have a better idea whether 
I can trust the bar graph or not.

Many thanks for any hints!

Charlotte
