• Ambient Temperature (Centigrade)

• Power Consumption (Watts)
NOTE: Power monitoring is applicable only for Dell EMC PowerEdge Servers with power monitoring capability for a
particular attribute. It is enabled only when the detailed edition of Dell EMC Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring
feature is present.
NOTE: Disk Performance View - iSM (%), is disabled by default and appears only when the detailed edition of the Dell
EMC Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring feature is installed and imported.
3 Select the counters from the individual performance views and select the time range for which the values are required.
The data collected is represented in a graphical format for each system.
A unit monitor monitors the performance counter over two successive cycles to check if it exceeds a threshold value. When the threshold
value is exceeded, the Dell EMC PowerEdge Server changes state and generates an alert. This unit monitor is disabled by default. You can
override (enable) the threshold values in the Authoring pane of the Operations Manager console. Unit monitors are available under Dell
Windows Server objects for the Dell EMC Server and Rack Workstation Monitoring feature. To enable the threshold values of unit
monitors, see Enabling Performance and Power Monitoring Unit Monitors.
For more information on performance information collection, see Performance Collection Rules.
