Metrics Collection Management View

Purpose

The Metrics Collection Management view is used to configure the metrics collect by agent. VMware agent has collect total 99 metrics from vCenter, but some metrics are not used to VMware dashboard and relate products (Capacity Director, Optimizer and so on), less metrics collection can reduce the pressure of collection from vCenter and improve performance for agent on large environment. This view is for this purpose and user can disable the collection of these metrics at this view.

•	Please select agent: select the agent which need configure.

•	Collect Metrics For Dashboard Only: Configure the agent just collect the metrics used for dashboard only.

•	Restore The Default Setting: Configure the agent to collect all metrics of VMware by default.

•	Save Edited Configuration: After editing these settings, click the Save Edited Collection Information button to save your configuration.

How to Get Here

•	On the VMware Environment dashboard, on the Administration tab, on the Advanced Options sub tab, click Metrics Collection Management. The Metrics Collection Management View in the display area.
