asked on 

vCenter Performance Counters over time - average resource usage or point in time?

This should be fairly easy, but I'm having trouble locating this on the VMware website.

I'm using the Performance Reports feature in vCenter 4 to measure gather data about an ESX Server over the last year. When I choose this time range for the report, it comes back with CPU, Memory, Disk, etc usage for every day during that period at 12:00:00.

My question - is this a point in time capture for midnight each day, or is the average data for that day? Makes abig difference in analysis.

Thank you!

VMware, a software company founded in 1998, was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies. VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture. Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
