The Metric and Collection Settings page provides details about thresholds and schedules for target metric collection. Using this page, you can edit the warning threshold and critical threshold values of target metrics and other collected items, and the time intervals for collection. The page shows a pencil icon in the Edit column for modifiable settings.
