Title

Give the title for the new graph. Give a meaningful name, so that you can identify this graph later. It is always good idea to keep |host_description| as it is, just add your desired title after this.

Vertical Label

This will be printed on the graph left side (y-axis). It's generally used to describe units, such as 'bytes' or 'percent'.
