Storage Pod Metrics

VMware Aria Operations
collects datastore and disk space metrics for storage pod objects.
Storage Pod metrics include capacity and badge metrics. See definitions in:
Datastore Metrics for Storage Pods
Metric Name
Description
Read IOPS
Average number of read commands issued per second during the collection interval.
Key: datastore|numberReadAveraged_average
Writes per second
Average number of write commands issued per second during the collection interval.
Key: datastore|numberWriteAveraged_average
Read Throughput (KBps)
Amount of data read in the performance interval.
Key: datastore|read_average
Write Throughput (KBps)
Amount of data written to disk in the performance interval.
Key: datastore|write_average
Total Throughput (KBps)
Usage Average.
Key: datastore|usage_average
Read Latency
Average amount of time for a read operation from the datastore. Total latency = kernel latency + device latency.
Key: datastore|totalReadLatency_average
Write Latency
Average amount of time for a write operation to the datastore. Total latency = kernel latency + device latency.
Key: datastore|totalWriteLatency_average
Total Latency (ms)
The average amount of time taken for a command from the perspective of a Guest OS. This is the sum of Kernel Command Latency and Physical Device Command Latency.
Key: datastore|totalLatency_average
Total IOPS
Average number of commands issued per second during the collection interval.
Key: datastore|commandsAveraged_average
Disk Space Metrics for Storage Pods
Metric Name
Description
Freespace
Unused space available on datastore.
Key: diskspace|freespace
Total used
Total space used.
Key: diskspace|disktotal
Capacity
Total capacity of datastore.
Key: diskspace|capacity
Virtual Machine used
Space used by virtual machine files.
Key: diskspace|used
Snapshot Space
Space used by snapshots.
