This management pack can be considered as optional. The metrics collected by the pack are not used in out-of-the-box Veeam MP for VMware dashboards, alerts or reports. If your infrastructure requires specific advanced performance analysis, you can deploy the Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP and enable the pack on a per-Host or per-VM basis. ::: note Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP collects granular performance data, including instance-based data. Use the management pack with caution to avoid heavy load and space usage in the OpsMgr databases. ::: The Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP includes the following additional metrics:

All rules included in the Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP are disabled by default. To enable performance data collection, manually add vSphere clusters, datastores, hosts and VMs to the *Veeam VMware objects for high-granularity performance collection* group: 1. Open the OpsMgr console using the account with administrative privileges. 2. Navigate to the **Authoring** node and select **Groups** . 3. In the group list, double-click the *Veeam VMware objects for high-granularity performance collection* group. 4. In the **Veeam VMware objects for high-granularity performance collection Properties** window, switch to the **Explicit Members** tab and click **Add/Remove Objects** . 5. In the **Object Selection** window, search for the necessary vSphere clusters, datastores, hosts and VMs, add them to the list of group members and click **OK** . 6. Click **OK** to save changes. For more information on performance collection rules included in the Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP, see [Veeam MP for VMware Reference](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/mp/vmware_reference/mp_reference.html?ver=90) . ::: note If you have a previous Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP version installed, do not forget to manually import a new version while upgrading Veeam MP for VMware . For more information on upgrading Veeam MP for VMware , see the [Veeam MP for VMware Installation Guide](https://helpcenter.veeam.com/docs/mp/vmware_guide/installation_guide.html?ver=90) . After you import the new Veeam VMware High-Granularity MP version, [manually add infrastructure objects](#add_objects) to the *Veeam VMware objects for high-granularity performance collection* group. :::
