Description
I believe it might be extremely handy to be have a way to load events associated with points on performance graphs. One implementation of this could be a button to toggle zoom off for graphs. When off, if you click on a location on the graph, it loads in a new page or popup all events for that device within X minutes of the indicated by the x coordinate of the click on the graph.
Use case: Looking at CPU and MEM graphs, you see they both spike sharply and go back down. Click on that point or near it, and it shows you all events that occurred within, say, 5 minutes of the x coordinate you selected. Lo, and behold, LDAP crashed! or whatever. This would be a lot faster than trying to guess the time on the graph, then going over to Events for the device, then finding matches.
Another way to implement it might be a small horizontal bar above or below each graph, and that is what is clickable, to the same effect.
