Hi all

I've been playing around with the WMI performance counters for Hyper-V. Of interest to me are the Virtual NIC bytes/sec input and output counters. I notice that the results are very "spikey". Over what time period is the latest counter averaged? I'm trying to calculate total traffic volume per VM, but sometimes a very high instantaneous poll result is inflating the result as I only poll the result each minute.

I would prefer to read a 'bytes total' counter instead of a 'bytes/sec' counter - is there such a thing?

Thanks

Acendo
