Disk Metrics for Datacenters
Disk metrics provide information about disk use.
Table 1‑63. Disk Metrics for Datacenters
Metric Key Metric Name Description
disk|commandsAveraged_average Commands per second Average number of commands issued
per second during the collection
interval.
disk|totalLatency_average Disk Command Latency (ms) Average amount of time taken for a
command from the perspective of the
guest operating system. This metric is
the sum of the Kernel Disk Command
Latency and Physical Device Command
Latency metrics.
disk|usage_average Usage Rate (KBps) Average of the sum of the data read and
wrien for all of the disk instances of
the host or virtual machine.
disk|sum_queued_oio Total queued outstanding operations Sum of queued operations and
outstanding operations.
disk|max_observed Max observed OIO Max observed IO for a disk.
