HP Insight Control - Manual (Page 18)

Selected virtual machine guests begin a new monitoring session with the updated parameters and
terminate any current monitoring session.
Data for virtual machine hosts and virtual machine guests is logged to the performance management
database only after logging is selected and parameters are applied. Logging of virtual machine
guests is not independent of the connected virtual machine hosts. For example, data cannot be
logged for a virtual machine guest if not also logged for the connected virtual machine host.
IMPORTANT: To monitor, alert, and log virtual machine guests, enable the monitor, alert, and
log parameters for the associated virtual machine host.
NOTE: The sample rate, log days, and number of samples cannot be set for the virtual machine
guests. These values are the same as those of the virtual machine host.
