If swapping isn't occurring for the virtual machines how can I get the counters for swap in and swap out back down to 0 where they should be?
You should first verify that there are no Memory Limits set on these VMs, this could make swapping to take place even if the host is not low on memory.
If there just was some temporary condition that caused some VMs to swap out and you know that the situation is normal now then you should not have to worry. The memory that was swapped by the Vmkernel will not go back until:
1. The VM actually needs those memory areas. If they have been like this for some time then they have not had any use so far.
2. You could restart the VMs to bring all memory back, but this might be a production disturbance and if you do not mind that it "looks ugly" then you could just leave it like this.
