Counters for ClusterServices Metrics

The following table shows the name, collection level, categories, and values for counters that involve ClusterServices metrics.

The VirtualCenter statistics level is a setting that controls reporting of metrics. Higher settings increase the amount of data collected and can impact performance.

• Level 1 collects resource use averages (but not for devices), uptime, heartbeat, and DRS data.
• Level 2 also includes usage summation and rollup types for the items above.
• Level 3 also collects device metrics in all the categories above.
• Level 4 also includes maximum and minimum rollup types.
