vRealize Operations Manager 7.5 - Part8 - Super Metrics

In this article, I will briefly explain about using super metrics in vROps 7.5. For example, I will take the VM NUMA optimization super metric which was released recently. You can download the super metric JSON file from the VMware sample exchange. 

Once the JSON file is downloaded, login to your vROps instance. Navigate to Administration - Configuration and select Super Metrics. Click on Import Super Metric.

Browse and select the JSON super metric file that you downloaded. Click DONE.

Once it is done, you can see the two super metrics. 

To enable the super metric in a policy:

Select the super metric - Edit Selected Super Metric - Goto Enable in a Policy  - Select vSphere Solution's Default Policy and click FINISH.

Now after the default collection interval, you can see the super metric tab as shown below. 

As you can see in the above screenshot, for this virtual machine "lustre01", recommendations are: 

• NUMA optimal CPU socket: 1 
• NUMA optimal CPU cores per socket: 8

Hope it was useful. Cheers!
