2 Click the All Metrics tab.
3 In the relationship topology map, click the virtual machine, dk-new-10.
The metrics list, located in the lower left of the center pane, displays virtual machine metrics.
4 On the chart toolbar, click Date Control and select a time that is on or before the symptoms were
triggered.
5 Add metric charts to the display area for the virtual machine.
a In the metric list, select Guest Files System Stats > Total Guest File System Free (GB) and double-
click the metric name.
b To add the guest partition, for example, C:\, select Guest Files System Stats > C:\ > Guest File
System Free (GB) and double-click the metric name.
c To add disk space for comparison, select Disk Space > Capacity Remaining (%) and double-click
the metric name.
6 Compare the charts.
A comparison of the charts shows a similar decrease in the le system free space, and that the virtual
machine disk space capacity remaining is decreasing at a steady rate. You determine that you must add
disk space to the virtual machine, but you do not know if the datastore can support the change to the
virtual machine.
7 Add the datastore capacity chart to the charts.
a In the topology map, double-click the host.
The topology map refreshes with the host as the focus object.
b Click the datastore.
c In the metric list, which is updated to display datastore metrics, select Capacity > Available Space
(GB) and double-click the metric name.
8 Review the datastore capacity chart to determine if sucient capacity is available on the datastore to
support increasing the disk space on the virtual machine.
You know that you need to increase the size of the virtual disk on the virtual machine.
What to do next
Expand the virtual disk on the virtual machine and assign it to stressed partitions. Click Actions, located on
the object title bar, and open the virtual machine in the vSphere Web Client.
Host-Related Metrics
vRealize Operations Manager provides groups of metrics for selected hosts. Each group displays the most
relevant metrics for the host to help you monitor your environment.
To display metric groups, select a host in the Environment Overview, and then select the All Metrics tab.
