Difference between vi3 and vc - sdk (visdk400) performance counters

I found two links when searching for the CPU performance counters:

1. http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk400pubs/ReferenceGuide/cpu_counters.html

2 http://pubs.vmware.com/vi3/sdk/ReferenceGuide/cpu.html

http://www.VMware.com/support/developer/VC-SDK/visdk400pubs/ReferenceGuide/cpu_counters.html [http://pubs.vmware.com/vi3/sdk/ReferenceGuide/cpu.html: http://pubs.vmware.com/vi3/sdk/ReferenceGuide/cpu.html]

As I understand it, the first is for vSphere 4.0, ESX 4.0 and vCenter 4.0 and the second is for the previous version, when it was called VMWare Infrastructure 3. Is this good?

I don't think you understand how to navigate the API reference page, the counter of 'performance' information available in each of the versions of the API, depending on the version, you'll see different counters, be they new or obsolete. You can also tell by looking at the URL

for example

visdk25pubs = VI 2.5

visdk400pubs = vSphere 4.0

visdk41pubs = vSphere 4.1

The specific page that you are referring only lists the CPU performance counters, there is definitely more than that.

Here's the exact URL to all 3 API listing the performance counters:

VI 2.5 - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk25pubs/ReferenceGuide/vim.PerformanceManager.html

vSphere 4.0 - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk400pubs/ReferenceGuide/vim.PerformanceManager.html

vSphere 4.1 - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/index.html

To access performance indicators (for example, I'll use vSphere 4.1) you will go through the following:

1) go to this address - http://www.vmware.com/support/developer/vc-sdk/visdk41pubs/ApiReference/index.html

2) click on managed object Types in the left pane

3) click on the box in the middle that says "ServiceContent.

4) scroll down and click on the link PerformanceManager

(5) you should be taken to the page linked above with all perf counters performance

It really helps to understand the object model of VI/vSphere to cross, here's a great blog by VMware used on the object model - http://www.doublecloud.org/2010/02/object-model-of-vmware-vsphere-api-a-big-picture-in-2-minutes/

Hope it makes sense

  • Difference between 'Reload' and "Reload (Override Cache)"?

    Https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/keyboard-shortcuts-perform-firefox-tasks-quickly#w_navigation, what is the difference between 'Reload' and "Reload (Override Cache)"? What makes "ignore cache"?

    Reloading Web pages and cache bypass aims to obtain a new copy of perhaps obsolete or damaged files currently stored in the disk cache.
    You can do it like the first attempt if a normal charging does not seem to provide a version of a Web site or if you are having problems with a Web site otherwise.

    We usually have advice that if you have questions:

    Reload Web pages and ignore the cache to refresh potentially stale or corrupt.

    • Hold down the SHIFT key and click the Reload button
    • Press 'Ctrl + F5' or 'Ctrl + Shift + R' (Windows, Linux)
    • Press 'Command + shift + R' (Mac)

    Clear the cache and delete cookies only from Web sites that cause problems.
    "Clear the Cache":

    • Firefox/tools > Options > advanced > network > content caching Web: 'clear now '.

    'Delete Cookies' sites causing problems:

    • Firefox/tools > Options > privacy > "Use the custom settings for history" > Cookies: "show the Cookies".

    Start Firefox in Safe Mode to check if an extension or theme (Firefox/tools > Modules > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is the cause of the problems.

  • Qosmio X - 70A - difference between nVidia and driver Toshiba GPU

    Is there a difference between nvidia and one packed by toshiba display driver?
    I'm using the Toshiba but Geforce experience gives me a headache with warnings about a newer driver and toshiba does not appear to provide a.

    Of course there is a difference between the GPU nVidia drivers (or drivers provided by manufacturers of graphics cards) and the drivers provided by Toshiba.

    The Toshiba driver page GPU drivers are changed and made for the mobile use.
    Each laptop model supports various components (CPU, cooling, modules, etc.) and different design. That is why the heat dissipation is always different.

    The GPU driver provided by Toshiba supports a kind of GPU overheating protection and protects the graphics chip of the damage. This means that the GPU performance are controlled by the driver and in case the internal temperature would rise to critical level, it would decrease the performance of the GPU. Also the laptop stops automatically if the temperature is too high.

  • How to tell the difference between recommended, and optional updates long after they have installed bene?

    I have a Vistaprogram of the window running on my Toshiba laptop.

    In the past, I've confirmed that optional udates be installed. Please help: now I want to uninstall optional updates because my computer is slow.  How to tell the difference between recommended, and optional updates long after they have installed bene?

    Hey monkey 44,

    I suggest you view the history in Windows Update:

  • JavaScript - the difference between ' window ' and 'document.'?

    Hello

    I'm a Javascript newbie which ended just by the first screen of Captivate (CP9) (HTML5) using Javascript.

    A slide with several text entry areas (TEBs) and a Submit button, which performs a function to validate the TEBs (thank you David for have started me).

    I call the function in the script of the Submit button window and have Javascript code in the Index file.

    In the Javascript code, I used the ' windows ' and 'document '. (don't know if I've used them correctly but the works of Javascript)

    I don't really know the difference between them.

    In Javascript, I know that window is loaded in the browser first, then the document is loaded in the window.

    It's like the window is your browser window and the document is the HTML page inside.

    Also, you can use each of them to access specific properties - and window has a context.

    Some examples of my javascript:

    • window.cpAPIInterface.setVariableValue ("q1_fback", "");         -erase a message of feedback (text of legend with variable) associated with BER
    • document.getElementById("Text_Entry_Box1_inputField").style.border = 'solid red medium. "  -modification of the border of an object invalid BER (red)

    My question is:

    1. What is the difference between ' window ' and "document." in a context of Captivate?

    I will post you more questions to find out how:

    1 use loops to knock down my code

    2 reuse the same function in other slides

    Concerning

    Donal.

    Your assumptions are correct.

    the cpAPIInterface is in the window.

    The Text_Entry_Box1_inputField is in the document, not the window, but you can use:

    window.document.getElementById("Text_Entry_Box1_inputField").style.border = 'solid red medium. "

    Scope of variables depends on how and when they are declared, and it is generally best to limit their scope and not use them globally in the window object. All seem to be available in the cPs variables window.

  • Difference between Gemfire and SQLFire

    Anyone can list the differences between Gemfire and SQLFire.

    Since both are targeted and databases as an object model and another model more than SQL. Apart from this basic difference if I can get some differences and the reason behind the two products, which would be much appreciated.

    Hello
    GemFire has a slightly different set of objectives: it is designed to be much more flexible (buttons plus) designed to achieve possibly higher performance in some scenarios. For example, you can do a caching prioritized with GemFire (client applications can incorporate a local cache) and it is rich in favour of publication / subscription semantics. Thus, it is possible to realize the event in real time, more scalabe engine architecturees with GemFire more than it is with SQLFire.
      
    On the other hand, SQLFire with relational semantics is easier to understand with a query more powerful engine and support for referential integrity provided out of the box.
      
    Level positioning, GemFire could be better adapted to the 'green field' applications that lend themselves to a design of K - V and SQLFire is best suited for applications where the data model (and so mark requirements) are more complex.
