The list bellow includes all of the new vSphere and vSAN metrics included in vRealize Operations Manager 7.0.
vSphere Metrics and Properties

| Datastore | Summary | Parent vCenter | Property |
Allows to create dashboards or reports which can help identify the name of the vCenter to which a datastore belongs. |
| Parent Datacenter | Property |
Allows to create dashboards or reports which can help identify the name of the Datacenter to which a datastore belongs. | ||
| Virtual Machine | Summary|Configuration | SRM Placeholder | Property |
Helps identify if a virtual machine is a placeholder shadow created by vCenter Site Recovery Manager. One can create a dashboard, report or SuperMetrics using this property to solve use cases such as DR visibility, configuration tracking or capacity calculations for protected virtual machines. |
| Guest | CPU Queue | Metric |
Number of threads in the processor queue. A high number could result in poor performance of the applications. This metric is fetched using VMware Tools. | |
| Disk Queue | Metric |
Number of storage IOs in the guest operating system disk queue. A high number could result in storage related performance issues. This metric is fetched using VMware Tools. | ||
| Disk Queue Latest | Metric |
vSAN Metrics and Properties

Additional Information
As noted in the Resolution section, the Guest OS metrics must meet the listed requirements to be collected. In addition, the metrics may be susceptible to the issue noted in Memory Usage % Metric may show much higher than the guest OS utilization in vRealize Operations Manager 6.7 and later versions.
To avoid this issue, ensure VMware Tools is updated to version 10.3.x or later and the Resolution section of the above KB is followed to disconnect and reconnect the parent hosts.
