You can adjust the thresholds at which certain events raise alerts. For example, by default, OneFS generates an alert when a
disk pool is 95% full. You can adjust that threshold to a lower percentage.
You can configure your cluster to generate alerts only for specific event groups, conditions, severity, or during limited time
periods.
Alerts are delivered through channels. You can configure a channel to determine who will receive the alert and when.
Alert channel overview
Alert channels are pathways by which event groups send alerts.
When an alert is generated, the channel that is associated with the alert determines how the alert is distributed and who
receives the alert.
You can configure an alert channel to deliver alerts with one of the following mechanisms: SMTP, SNMP, or Connect Home. You
can also specify the required routing and labeling information for the delivery mechanism.
