Disabling cache metrics collection
You can disable cache metrics collection globally, by disabling collection on the virtual machine, or locally, by disabling collection for individual disks on the virtual machine.
Steps 
1.
From the home page of the Flash Accel Management Console, click the wrench icon for the VM on which you want to disable cache metrics collection and select Cache Metrics > Disable.
From the home page of the Flash Accel Management Console, select each VM on which you want to disable cache metrics collection and click Cache Metrics in the Bulk Actions area of the FMC. In the cache metrics dialog box, select the Disable button and click Submit.
Select Advanced in the wrench tool menu or Bulk Actions area to enable or disable caching, set the cache mode, and enable or disable cache metrics for VMs or disks in the same step.
2.
You can view the disks for a VM by opening the details page for the VM. FMC displays a Show Me menu in the left pane. Click VM Disks to navigate to the disks page.
From the disks page of the Flash Accel Management Console, click the wrench icon for the disk on which you want to disable cache metrics collection and select Cache Metrics > Enable.
From the disks page of the Flash Accel Management Console, select each disk on which you want to disable cache metrics collection and click Cache Metrics in the Bulk Actions area of the FMC. In the cache metrics dialog box, select the Disable button and click Submit.
Result 
The Metrics field for the virtual machines and disks is set to Disabled.
After you finish 
Remember that disabling metrics collection on a virtual machine effectively disables metrics collection on all its disks. If metrics collection seems not to be working properly for a disk, make sure that collection is enabled on both the disk and the virtual machine.
