Alarms

Nirmata offers comprehensive alarm management capabilities to correlate state and metrics and notify users of any unexpected condition in their applications or clusters.

Terminology

Object Description
Alarm Type An Alarm Type defines the schema for an alarm. This includes data to indicate when the alarm must be triggered, and when it should be cleared.
Alarm Notifier A Notifier includes settings for where and how alarm notifications should be sent.
Alarm An Alarm (or Alarm Instance) captures data for an alarm that is raised, or is in the process of being raised.

Concepts

An alarm is created when the trigger condition specified in an alarm type occurs at the scope specified in the filter. The alarm is automatically cleared when the clear condition for the object is triggered.

Alarms can also be dismissed or deleted as needed.
