A unit monitor monitors the performance counter over two successive cycles to check if it exceeds the configured critical
threshold value. When the critical threshold value is exceeded, the server changes state and a critical alert is generated. This
unit monitor is disabled by default. You can override (enable) the threshold values from the Authoring pane of the SCOM
console. Unit monitors are available under the Dell Server objects for the Licensed monitoring feature. To enable the unit
monitors and set threshold values of unit monitors, see Enable performance and power monitoring unit monitors on page 47.
NOTE: Power monitoring is applicable only for Dell EMC PowerEdge Servers with power monitoring capability 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.
