Now that we’ve seen how to build our own super metrics, let's take a look at some of the operators we have available to supercharge our calculations.
Let's get back to the VM OS Uptime % example we have at the beginning of the chapter and recap it quickly. In vRealize Operations, you can get VM OS uptime via the OS Uptime metric. The metric shows an ever-growing number until a reboot of the monitored object takes place. This means that for any given time period you will end up with some number that might be very high or very low, and as such it becomes very hard to make sense of it in terms of uptime statistics.
We can use super metrics and the available comparison operators to turn these data points into something useful in the context of uptime statistics, which we can use for management or customer reports:
${this, metric=sys...
