Storage Controller Component Hierarchy
Expand the Storage component in any Dell system instance diagram view, to view the status and health of components such as physical
disks, connectors, virtual disks, controllers, sensors, and enclosures.
State Views
This view is available for viewing the health state of Dell servers (Out-of-band). In the OpsMgr console, click Dell > State Views,
the status of each Dell server managed by OpsMgr on your network is displayed.
You can view the status for the following groups:
• Managed servers (Out-Of-Band)
• Unmanaged servers (Out-Of-Band)
Performance And Power Monitoring Views
To view the performance and power monitoring on the OpsMgr console:
1. Launch the OpsMgr console and click Monitoring.
2. In the Monitoring pane, click Dell > Performance and Power Monitoring > Dell Performance View.
NOTE: All performance metric rules are disabled by default for Server Out-of-band monitoring feature.
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 server changes state and generates an alert. This unit monitor is disabled by default. You can override (enable and
modify) the threshold values from the Authoring pane of the OpsMgr console. Unit monitor is available under Monitors for Dell Server
objects for Server (Out-of-band) monitoring feature.
For more information on performance information collection, see Performance Collection Rules.
