You have the option to adjust the time intervals to get a good indication of how the data points are distributed. Note that if the histogram has intervals that are, in theory, infinitesimally small, the chart will result in a plot of the probability density function (pdf).

Failures/Suspensions HistogramThe Failures/Suspensions Histogram shows the frequency distribution of the failures and suspensions in the data set. The data set is separated into time intervals, and the number of failures/suspensions that fall into each time interval are plotted in a bar chart. This chart has two display options:
