Abstract
Systems and methods are disclosed that facilitate the collection, transmission and processing of information related to the storage processes initiated in conjunction with virtual machine instances instantiated on a hosted virtual network. A virtual machine manager component, such a hypervisor component, receives a storage request from one or more virtual machine instances hosted on a host computing device. Additionally, the virtual machine manager component can further request via the storage protocol that the storage subsystem should collect and return storage process metric information. If the storage subsystem supports the collection of the storage process metric information, the storage subsystem will provide a response to the storage request and at least some of the requested storage process metric information. The virtual machine manager component can then process the response to the storage request as appropriate and forward any storage process metric information to a storage process metrics management component.
