I’ve an small issue with the charts. It seems that the internal index of the graph changes if there are more than 1 graph, because the colors of each graph change on each update. Also, if I mark an indicator so that the line gets bold, on each update a different graph is bold.

I’m using it with ESXi 5.5

Any idea?

I am running a fusion Windows 7 VM on my MAC. I have downloaded the file to my C-drive and it doesn’t pop-up the window. I have tried the same on my MAC and it works. Is there a settings I need to make on my Windows 7 VM? Please let me know. Thanks!

Same with me, connects just fine and looks fantastic for about 20 seconds before hanging. Concept is great!

Windows 7 (x64), Java 1.7.0_51

Hi Anton,

Have you generated counter list file?

Following is a typical usage of visualEsxtop-filter-stats.bat:

Given a batch output file, save selected stats into another file
1. First list all the counters in a file, using ExportCounter. E.g. Let the esxtop batch output file be “esxtop.csv”, we want to list the counters in “counter.list”. We can use the following command:
visualEsxtop-export-counter.bat -d esxtop.csv -o counter.list

2. Select the counters in the counter list file. Each line in the file represents one counter instance. To choose one counter, Replace the first letter of that line with a non-space character (e.g “*”)

3. Filter for those stats, using visualEsxtop-filter-stats.bat. E.g. We want to filter out the stats to “selected.csv”, we can use the following command:
visualEsxtop-export-counter.bat -d esxtop.csv -l counter.list -o selected.csv

I am very happy to see the updated version works with ESXi 5.5.x and works with later version of Java (I am using Java 7_67).
