How to create a dashboard for Top-10 VM with highest IOPs?

[sameshdhankhar]

Hello All,

i am trying to create a dashboard for TOP-N VMs on a datastore cluster based on Total IOPs.

General Top-N for total IOPS was easy to get but not able to relate it to a DS cluster!

Appreciate any input on this!

Regards

Hi,

the topic is also covered in this post. See if you can take a cue from the correct answer link:

Did you tried using custom groups where you add the datastores as member in? Use the custom group in a Top-N view to see if you can get the required result.

Thank you for the your response  @RickVerstegen and @AlessandroRomeo68.

The problem with my query was, there is no direct relationship of VM to the datastore cluster and hence the relationship was not available.

But i was able to achieve the requirement and wrote about that in my blog, hope this will help others as well.
