# System metrics

You can monitor the following system metrics in your environment:

* CPU usage
* Memory, used and available
* File system, used and available

  <div data-gb-custom-block data-tag="hint" data-style="success" class="hint hint-success"><p>We recommend setting an alert when file system usage is above 80%.</p></div>

If you are using services or daemons, we recommend monitoring the health of the collibra-agent and collibra-console services.

The following is an example configuration for [OpenTelemetry collector](https://opentelemetry.io/docs/collector/) to collect basic system metrics. This may be different for the observability tool that you are using.
