get-stat no data

tdubb123 · ‎09-12-2015

trying to get-stat on a vm but getting no data for past 5 days. I am not sure if this is because my vcenter statistics are all at the defaults "1"

any idea?

Even with Statistics Level 1 you should see data.

Was the VM powered on at the start of the interval you requested ?

Do you see statistical data in the vSphere Client or the Web Client for that same period ?

lucd

in vsphere client I only see it going back one day

That seems to indicate you're only collecting Historical Interval 1.

What does it say for the Historical Interval settings ?

Could also be that the aggregation jobs on you DB server are not running as they should.

this is what I see under statistics

From the Statistics Levels you should have data for Historical Intervals 2,3 and 4.

It could be that the aggregation job on the vCenter DB are not running as they should.

Can you check you DB server and see if the aggregation jobs are running successfully ?

yes according to this kb, I do see the stored procedures under the vcenter db. can i tell if they were ran or not?

It depends which DB you are using.

If it's a SQL server you should be able to see the history of the scheduled jobs.
