Thanks Stephen, but I'm not sure if I follow correctly: I used `twinx()` as
I wanted "line 1" to be referenced on left Y-axis and "line 2" on right
Y-axis. In your example I can't see what's the purpose of twinx() command? -
It presents left Y-axis as default 0 to 1 values not referenced to any plot.

All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a
definitive record of customers, application performance, security
threats, fraudulent activity and more. Splunk takes this data and makes
sense of it. Business sense. IT sense. Common sense.
