Virtual Machine Metrics
vRealize Operations Manager collects conguration, CPU use, memory, datastore, disk, virtual disk, guest
le system, network, power, disk space, storage, and summary metrics for virtual machine objects.
Capacity metrics can be calculated for virtual machine objects. See “Capacity and Project-Based Metrics,” on
page 62.
Configuration Metrics for Virtual Machines
Conguration metrics provide information about virtual machine conguration.
