This page lists the metrics collected by the Dell Power Store integration and describes the default monitoring configuration applied when the integration is installed. You can use this information to understand what is monitored out-of-the-box and how to customize thresholds, templates, and alert behaviour for your environment.
Supported Metrics
The metrics collected by the Dell Power Store integration are grouped into logical categories based on the monitored component type. Each category is represented as a tabbed table that displays the native type, metric names, display labels, units, supported versions, and descriptions.

For example, an appliance has two 2 GB volumes and have written 500 MB of data to them. The thin savings would be (2 GB * 2) / (0.5 GB * 2) or 4:1, so the thin_savings value would be 4.0. | volumeUsage | |

Default Monitoring Configurations
Dell Power Store provides default monitoring components that include:
- Global Device Management Policies
- Global Templates
- Global Monitors
These configurations are applied automatically upon installation. You can customize them for your environment by cloning the global versions and modifying thresholds or alerting behaviour.We recommend this customization before installing the application to avoid unnecessary alerts and noise.
Default Global Device Management Policies
You can find the Device Management Policy for each Native Type at Setup > Resources > Device Management Policies. Search with suggested name in global scope. Each Device Management Policy follows below naming convention:
{appName nativeType - version}Ex: dell-power-store Powerstore Storage Volume - 2 (i.e, appName = dell-power-store, nativeType = Powerstore Storage Volume , version = 2)
Default Global Templates
You can find the Global Templates for each Native Type at Setup > Monitoring > Templates. Search with suggested names in global scope. Each template follows below naming convention:
{appName nativeType 'Template' - version}Ex: dell-power-store Powerstore Storage Appliance Template - 2(i.e, appName = dell-power-store, nativeType = Powerstore Storage Appliance, version = 2)
Default Global Monitors
You can find the Global Monitors for each Native Type at Setup > Monitoring > Monitors. Search with suggested name in global scope. Each Monitors follows below naming convention:
{monitorKey appName nativeType - version}Ex: Powerstore Storage Appliance Monitor dell-power-store Powerstore Storage Appliance 2 (i.e, monitorKey =Powerstore Storage Appliance Monitor, appName = dell-power-store, nativeType = Powerstore Storage Appliance , version = 2)
