Monitoring The Health Of Dell Devices

You can monitor the health of Dell devices using the scheduled policies. Scheduled policies update the

global system status of the Dell devices at 02:00 A.M. every day. These policies poll each Dell device

grouped under the Services → Systems Infrastructure → Dell Hardware hierarchy to obtain the global

system status and send corresponding severity messages to the active message browser of the HPOM

console.
