Total ttraffic usage of VMs (not average!)

Votes:

0

Hi,

we have added our vCenter as a device on PRTG, and a sensor "VMware Virtual Machine(SOAP)" to see VM details. This Sensor only shows average network usage (BW) not the total traffic/data usage of a day/30day/etc! (attached): https://ibb.co/Q6b8rBR This is the same data as vCenter shows by default!

I wonder is there any possibility that capturing/seeing the total usage of VM through PRTG?

Hello there
Thank you for reaching us.
This sensor will feed its information from the Vcenter, which means that the information will have to match at some point with its target. Unfortunately, the information provided by the sensor channels is the only information available at the moment for this sensor.
