What you need to do (I think and I always do it like this) Define 3 sets of axes by hand instead of subplot(211) you use plt.axes(...) to create them (I guess there may be a nicer method, not sure). Then you can pass which axes to draw into with the colorbar function.

It contains a definitive record of application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity, and more. Splunk takes this data and makes sense of it. IT sense.
