VM disk IO

Is there a counter that can be used in vsphere 5.1 to show the amount the disk IO that a VM uses?

If you click on the VM, performance tab, disk item, you can select a lot of counters... is that what you need?

I would like to know which counter would reflect disk IO. You can get this in ESXtop using cmds, but I would like to have the same in vcenter.

There are counters that can not be seen from vCenter, esxtop is better. if you want to see in graphic esxtop, you can try visualesxtop
