getBandwidthData
Retrieve a collection of raw bandwidth data from an individual public or private network tracking object. Raw data is ideal if you with to employ your own traffic storage and graphing systems.
-
getBandwidthGraph
[DEPRECATED] Retrieve a PNG image of a bandwidth graph representing the bandwidth usage over time recorded by SofTLayer's bandwidth pollers.
-
getBandwidthTotal
Retrieve the total amount of bandwidth recorded by a tracking object within the given date range. This method will only work on SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object for SoftLayer_Hardware objects, and SoftLayer_Virtual_Guest objects.
-
getDetailsForDateRange
Retrieve a collection of detailed metric data over a date range. Ideal if you want to employ your own graphing systems. Note not all metrics support this method. Those that do not return null.
-
getGraph
[DEPRECATED] Retrieve a PNG image of a metric in graph form.
-
getMetricDataTypes
Returns a collection of metric data types that can be retrieved for a metric tracking object.
-
getObject
getObject retrieves the SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object object whose ID number corresponds to the ID number of the init parameter passed to the SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object service. You can only tracking objects that are associated with your SoftLayer account or services.
-
getSummary
Retrieve a metric summary. Ideal if you want to employ your own graphing systems. Note not all metric types contain a summary. These return null.
-
getSummaryData
Returns summarized metric data for the date range, metric type and summary period provided.
-
getType
The type of data that a tracking object polls.
-
SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object
Metric tracking objects provides a common interface to all metrics provided by SoftLayer. These metrics range from network component traffic for a server to aggregated Bandwidth Pooling traffic and more. Every object within SoftLayer's range of objects that has data that can be tracked over time has an associated tracking object. Use the [SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object](/reference/datatypes/SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object) service to retrieve raw and graph data from a tracking object.

SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object
Metric tracking objects provides a common interface to all metrics provided by SoftLayer. These metrics range from network component traffic for a server to aggregated Bandwidth Pooling traffic and more. Every object within SoftLayer's range of objects that has data that can be tracked over time has an associated tracking object.
The SoftLayer_Metric_Tracking_Object service contains methods that allow users to retrieve data from these tracking objects in raw and graph form.
