Why doesn't the "Disk" option in the performance tab show up on VMs that are on an NFS Datastore?

Hi Guys

Looking for a way to monitor I/O performance of indivdual virtual machines in an ESX3.5/VC2.5. Normally we'd use a combination of guest level monitoring tools (perfmon, iostat etc.) and the ESX logging, however the later is not an option when the VM is on a NFS datastore.

Why is that? Is it to do with the lack of a VMFS filesystem?

Cheers

Sam
