Trying to run a report to see Guest CPU Utilization in vFoglight 6.0

Question

I am trying to run a report to see Guest CPU Utilization in vFoglight 6.0, as I have a couple of VMs that seem to be problematic. I want to see what the CPU levels are during a period of time inside the VMs , but I only seem to be able to find the data in reports for the Host CPU utilization.
Any assistance is welcomed

If you want to use the canned reports, which I think will work for what you are asking, there is a pre-built for you.
Home>Reports>Generate a report>Select the desired template under All report templates ("Virtual machine CPU usage and ready time" sounds like the report you want"
for the service the vCenter should work. This will send you all hosts and all VMs CPU usage over whatever time period you set (default is 4).

Have you configured Guest Process Monitoring for these VMs? If so, you can change the timeframe using the zonar at the top right and export the graph data. -LM

I witch way you monitor the Guest CPU Utilization?
Guest process or Agent in the VMs?
In all cases you found this Metric under Hosts and not under Virtual! Virtual are only metrics collected by vCenter Server Agent!
I hope this helps
