How to view vCops KPI default KPIs for VMware adapter?

[MattG]

Is there an easy way to view vCops built-in KPI definitions for VMware adapters metrics?

Also,  what is the difference between Attribute Packages Default and All attributes.

I thought that I would see the KPI boxes checked in on of these packages for Virtual Machines,  but the KPI boxes are unchecked.

Thanks,

MattG, I dont believe that there are ANY default kpis in vcops. My experience with attrib pcks is that the default is essentially an empty set of the All attribs. For the vmware adapter, virtual machines... my default doesnt have the green icon in the folder for cpu usage or other optional folders. Meaning I dont have any cpu usage metrics setup for collection.

So metrics like CPU Ready / Contention do not get treated with a higher importance?   I thouhgt I read that vCops has built-in vCenter KPI metrics that it tracks with greater importance as they are known to indicate performance issues?

MattG.... perhaps you can open your custom ui, under environment, configuration, attribute pkgs, and select your vmware, virtual machine ALL attribs and expand cpu usage then select a metric and on the right select the higher than is KPI and when you save this (dont try in prod) you will see a little KEY symbol on the folder indicating a metric is a kpi. Maybe 5.6 release will have pre-selected KPIs.
