26.3.2 Activity types: alerts and tasks
26.3.2.1 About alerts
The appliance uses alert messages to report issues with the resources it manages. The resources
generate alerts to notify you that some meaningful event occurred and that an action might be
required.
An event describes a single problem or change that occurred on a resource. For example, an event
might be an SNMP trap received from a server's Integrated Lights-Out (iLO) management processor.
Each alert includes the following information about the event it reports: severity, state, description,
and urgency. You can clear alerts, assign owners to alerts, and add notes to alerts.
