• The counter name can be found using the method vm.counter.list[(uuid|name)]
• The interval parameter defines the how much data will be collected (in seconds).

Sample usage :

vm.counter.discovery[VM01,virtualDisk.totalReadLatency.average]
{
    "data": [
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:2"
        },
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:1"
        },
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:0"
        },
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:6"
        },
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:5"
        },
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:4"
        },
        {
            "{#METRICINSTANCE}": "scsi2:3"
        }
