units (DCIUnit)

      Units for this metric.

      This field is used to indicate what the metric is measuring. The purpose of this field is to tell the measurement application (the DCI consumer) what type of size, time, or count is being measured. Below is a list of valid units.

      The following constants are used with the time, count, size and information units:

      DCU_UNITS_TIME
