NWorks Metric Definitions and VC Events

Challenge

Some customers want to create custom alerts, change settings within their VC, or verify what type of data is being collected.  Veeam supplies a list of what Metrics and Events that we use for nWorks.

Solution

Here is a list of the nWorks Metrics:

Here is a list of the nWorks Events:

An example of how to use these 2 list is if you wanted to know how to create an alert for when a VM loses network connectivity, you would use the nWorks Events list (answer: VmNetworkFailedEvent) and if you wanted to know VM CPU usage you would use the Metrics list (answer: cpuUsedPct for percent or cpuUsageMhz for Mhz).
