[Xen-API] Problems in extracting VIF metrics

["Sane, Abhijeet" <Abhijeet_Sane@xxxxxxx>]

Hi ,

I am trying to extract VIF metrics data of all the VMs on a Citrix Xen host.
I wrote the code as follows to iterate the VIF sets in all VMs and from the VIF 
record of each VIF get the VIF metrics.
The VIF metrics like I/O read / write rates are not available.

Please guide whether I am doing something wrong.


        session = XenAPI.xapi_local(
        session.xenapi.login_with_password("root","")
        all = session.xenapi.VM.get_all()
        try:

                for vm in all:
                        try:
                                record = session.xenapi.VM.get_record(vm)
                                if  not record["is_control_domain"] and  not 
record["is_a_template"] and record["resident_on"]
 :
                                        domid = record["domid"]
                                        name = record["name_label"]
                                        vif_set = session.xenapi.VM.get_VIFs(vm)
                                        for vif in vif_set:
                                                                vif_metrics = 
session.xenapi.VIF.get_metrics(vif)
                                                vif_rec = 
session.xenapi.VIF.get_record(vif)
                                                mac_addr = vif_rec["MAC"]
                                                metrc =  
session.xenapi.VIF_metrics.get_record(vif_rec["metrics"])
                                                                # I have 
removed the code to extract io_read and io_write at this point of time .
                                        loca_str =  '%s,%s,%s,%s,%s\n' % (domid 
, name , mac_addr ,io_read ,io_write)
                                        csv_string = csv_string + loca_str

                                domid = ""
                                name = ""
                                mac_addr = ""
                                io_read = ""
                                io_write = ""

                        except Exception, e:
                                print "Exception 1",e
                                loca_str =  '%s,%s,%s,%s,%s\n' % (domid , name 
, mac_addr ,io_read ,io_write)
                                csv_string = csv_string + loca_str

        except Exception ,e:
                print "Exception 2",e
            loca_str =  '%s,%s,%s,%s,%s\n' % (domid , name , mac_addr ,io_read 
,io_write)
            csv_string = csv_string + loca_str





Program output is as follows
