vROPS Super Metric – Virtual Machine Uptime

Personally, Virtual Machine uptime is the hardest metric to calculate and create by far. Luckily, my co-worker Iwan has already created one using his own logic. All I had to do was update it and improve it as needed. Rather than rewrite everything he wrote; you can read a full explanation of how the metrics work here: http://virtual-red-dot.info/vm-availability-monitoring/

You can download the new version that I modified below. In my next post, I will show you how to monitor and get an alert on a Virtual Machine going down using this metric in vROPS 8.2. If you want this capability, it is best to download and activate this supermetric now.
