Vcenter vs Cisco UCS Alarm Rentention

Looking for recommendations on Alarm values and retention settings in Vcenter.  We have an issue where Vcenter has reported Host alarms but when we log into UCSM there are no alarms present.  Some in our group tend to trust UCSM more than Vcenter when it comes to hardware alarms.  I am not partial towards either but I am concerned that the alarm retention settings between UCSM and VCenter may not be consistent.  That said I am looking for information on what values Vcenter uses for its alarms (actual threshold etc), and if the said values and retention settings are adjustable.  I guess I'd like to make sure that Alarms retention is consistent.

which alarms in general are you observing ?

e.g. Host Memory Usage and CPU Usage, Datastore storage space once breached the threshold will remain, unless Cleared or Acknowledged.

VMware, a software company founded in 1998, was one of the first commercially successful companies to offer x86 virtualization. The storage company EMC purchased VMware in 1994. Dell Technologies acquired EMC in 2016. VMware’s parent company is now Dell Technologies. VMware has many software products that run on desktops, Microsoft Windows, Linux, and macOS, which allows the virtualizing of the x86 architecture. Its enterprise software hypervisor for servers, VMware vSphere Hypervisor (ESXi), is a bare-metal hypervisor that runs directly on the server hardware and does not require an additional underlying operating system.
