Notes
This section provides information to enhance your experience with Dell Server PRO Management Pack for
SCVMM 2008, SCVMM 2008 R2, SCVMM 2008 R2 SP1, and SCE 2010.
Dell Server PRO Management Pack does not monitor informational alerts. You must take
appropriate action by looking at the system health in SCOM/SCE (Operations Manager) State view,
after implementing PRO Tips.
Dell Server PRO Management Pack does not provide multiple alerts on sensors (inclusive of current,
voltage, fan, and temperature). This means that there is only one sensor event reported for any
sensor state transition on a given system. After you have cleared the alert, any subsequent alert is
reported.
