Performance counters are modeled using the PerfCounterInfo data object type. Each instance of a PerfCounterInfo data object contains metadata about a specific metric available from the system. The vCenter Server Resources group (vcResources) of performance counters tracks performance metrics for vCenter Server resources. |
