How to enable disk|totalReadLatency_average counter in vROps 6.1 for VM?

Problem: Not able to enable below listed counter in vROps 6.1 for VM.

Please refer the attachment 'metrics.png' for metrics.

We are trying to enable the above listed  counter through current active policy in "Collect Metrics and Properties" for Object type vCenter->VM.Please refer the attached 'Edit_Monitoring_Policy.jpg' screenshot.

After enabling the counter for VM we are trying to get the value of counter by two way.

1. Looking the counter value at vROps GUI.

Please refer the attached 'Counter_Values_in_vROPS.jpg' screenshot.

2 Calling the Rest Api call (https://<vROps_IP_Address>/suite-api/api/resources/stats?resourceId=67988bb6-adb0-4503-b214-82490bede59c&statKey=disk|totalReadLatency_average)


But in both cases we are not able to get the value of counter.

Thank You.

Those metrics can be found automatically through Datastore I/O > Aggregate of all Instance by default.
