Add/Edit an Alert Policy

Alert policies are intended to be independently activated and alerted on. Once you choose what to watch in your datacenter, you can receive actionable information through alert notifications. This same information can be viewed on-demand through the different Alert reports - where events can be captured and drilled into for root-cause analysis. The following covers an overview of the steps:

  1. Select an alert rule.

  2. Name the policy and define the time intervals.

  3. Define the scope to monitor.

  4. Set the threshold for the alert rule.
