Hi all,

I am using Xen C++ Api to connect to remote Xen server and get vif metrics of a vm. But value 0 is returned for both read io and write io, while the  performance graph from XenServer interface shows me non 0 value...

Following is the function which I am using to get vif parameter of VM. I have included error handling but control never goes to error condition... Can any body suggest me what is the problem here... 

Is it because, I am connecting to remote server or problem with the way I am using Api ? Does Xen Api C++ support remote connection? 


bool GetVMNwUtilisation(xen_vm vm, double& dreadIO, double& dwriteIO)
{
xen_vif_set* vif_set = new xen_vif_set[MAX_VIF_SIZE];
if(!(xen_vm_get_vifs(m_session, &vif_set, vm)))
    {
        cout << "Failed to get VM VIF " << endl;
        return false;
    }

double readIO = 0.0, double writeIO = 0.0;
for(int i=0; i<vif_set->size; i++)
    {
xen_vif vif = vif_set->contents[i];
        bool bAttached=false;
        xen_vif_get_currently_attached(m_session, &bAttached, vif);
        if(bAttached)
        {
       xen_vif_metrics vif_metrics;
if(!(xen_vif_get_metrics(m_session, &vif_metrics, vif)))
{
cout << "Err in xen_vif_get_metrics" << endl;        
       return false;
}
if (!(xen_vif_metrics_get_io_read_kbs(m_session,&readIO,vif_metrics)))
{
cout << "Err in xen_vif_metrics_get_io_read_kbs" << endl;        
return false;
}
if (!(xen_vif_metrics_get_io_write_kbs(m_session,&writeIO,vif_metrics)))
{
cout << "Err in xen_vif_metrics_get_io_write_kbs" << endl;        
return false;
}
dreadIO += readIO;
dwriteIO += writeIO;
        }
    }

   cout << "Read IO : " << dreadIO << "  Write IO " << dwriteIO << endl;
}
