Description:
The alert type denotes the severity level. There are four alert levels:
Green alert -- Normal operation. This alert type is normally silent but can still trigger when one of the higher alert levels is canceled and the situation returns to normal.
Yellow alert -- Warning. For a resource allocation alert it means that at least 90% of the specified soft limit was reached.
Red alert -- Critical situation. For a resource alert it means that the current resource usage is above the soft limit and further allocation can be refused at any moment.
Black alert -- The black alert means that the integrity of the system has been compromised. For a resource allocation alert it means that the hard limit was reached and further resource allocation is not possible.
Alert type definitions are stored in the Agent vocabulary under the alert_type
category. The following request retrieved the alert type definitions from the Agent vocabulary:
