# Usage

The **Usage** page in *KAgent* hosts detailed system and
[resource group](/content/rm) usage statistics and metrics.

## System

The **System** tab under the **Usage** page displays several
system usage metric and statistics graphs as well as an [Events Timeline](#events-timeline).

* Click one of the timeframe control buttons or select a date-time range to
  adjust the event timeline and the metric graphs to the selected duration
* Adjust the **Ring**, **Cluster**, and/or **Node**
  drop-down menus to filter the graphs for the selected ring / cluster / node
* Point the cursor to a graph to see the value at that time

### Events Timeline

The **Events Timeline** displays events that have occurred within
the selected timeframe. A red cursor continuously moves through the timeline,
denoting seconds as they pass. Events will appear along the timeline in real
time.
