Statistic collection intervals determine the frequency at which statistic queries occur, the length of time statistical data is stored in the database, and the type of statistical data that is collected. You can view the collected statistics through the performance charts in the vSphere Client or through command-line monitoring utilities.

Procedure

  1. In the vSphere Client, navigate to the vCenter Server instance.

  2. Select the Configure tab.

  3. Under Settings, select General.

  4. Click Edit.

  1. To enable or disable a statistics interval, check the box for that interval.

  2. To change a statistics interval attribute value, select a value from the drop-down menu.

    1. In Interval Duration, select the time interval in which statistics data is collected.

    2. In Save For, select for how long the archived statistics are kept in the database.

    3. In Statistics Level, select a new level for collecting statistics.The lower the level is, the fewer number of statistic counters are used. Level 4 uses all statistics counters. Use it only for debugging purposes.

Note: Please make sure to enable the 5 minutes Interval - Save for 1 day - Level 3
