Configuring performance metering for a VMware vCenter server

Last published : Aug 24, 2026
Using the Management Server console, you can enable or disable performance metering for a VMware vCenter server and its configured ESX servers.
Performance metering is enabled by default. To disable performance metering, clear the Enable performance metering check box.
You can enter an interval period for which you want the performance data to be collected. The interval period should be between 5 minutes and 1440 minutes and in the multiples of five. The default interval period is five minutes.
For more information on performance metering, refer to the Veritas InfoScale Operations Manager User Guide.
To perform this task, your user group must be assigned the Admin role on the Management Server perspective.
Note: To perform this operation you must have Control Host Add-on 6.1.
