# Adding UCS Performance Monitors | OpManager Help

## Performance Monitors

Whenever **OpManager** discovers UCS devices, UCS performance monitors are automatically associated with it. Thresholds can be set to receive alarms when breached.

To set thresholds for a performance monitor:

1. Navigate to **Inventory -> Category -> UCS** and go to the Snapshot Page of the device.
2. Go to **Monitors**. Performance monitors would have already been added to the device.
3. Select the monitor that you wish to edit.
4. Configure the **Monitoring Interval, Units, Threshold Details** values and click on **Save**.

**OpManager** sends alarms if the configured threshold levels are breached.

**Note:** You can also configure adaptive thresholds for CPU utilization, Memory Utilization, and Response Time monitors globally across **OpManager** from **Settings -> Monitoring -> Monitor Settings**.
