The Update Event Definition dialog appears.

Under Alarms, review and change the settings depending on the event type:

For events of the Object Modified type:

Trigger On	Specify the value or the monitored property at which to trigger an alarm.
Trigger Off	Specify the value or the monitored property at which to trigger off an alarm.
Severity	Determine the severity of the alarm that is raised when this event occurs.

For events of the Threshold type:

Operator	Select the operator to be used when comparing the monitored property value with the threshold: greater than. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property increases to higher than the specified threshold value. greater equal. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property increases to the specified threshold value or higher. lower than. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property falls below the specified threshold value. lower equal. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property falls to the specified threshold value or below it.
Threshold	Specify the threshold value of the monitored property.
Severity	Determine the severity of the alarm that is raised when this event occurs.

For events of the Rate type:

Operator	Select the operator to be used when comparing the monitored property value with the threshold: greater than. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property increases to higher than the specified threshold value. greater equal. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property increases to the specified threshold value or higher. lower than. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property falls below the specified threshold value. lower equal. The alarm is triggered when the monitored property falls to the specified threshold value or below it.
Threshold	Specify the threshold value of the monitored property.
Timeframe	Define the period of time during which to monitor the property. Enter a number followed by a time unit without spaces. Valid time unit designations: `s` - seconds `m` - minutes `h` - hours `D` - days `M` - months For example: 1h
Severity	Determine the severity of the alarm that is raised when this event occurs.

Under Actions, optionally set up custom actions that VAST Cluster performs when the event occurs, which you can choose to be initiated either by all events of this definition or only by alarms triggered by events of this definition.

Note
There are default action settings that affect all events. See Default Notification Actions).Default Action Settings

To send notifications specifically for this event to an external application, complete the webhook parameters:

Webhook URL	The URL of the API endpoint of an external application, including parameters.
Webhook data	The payload, if required, for the endpoint. You can use the `$event` variable to include the event message.
Webhook Method	Select the HTTP method you want to invoke with the trigger: POST GET PUT PATCH DELETE

To send email notifications to non-default recipients, enter the recipient email addresses as a comma separated list (no spaces) in the Email Recipients field.
Note
An SMTP server and sender email address must be defined in the SMTP Setup tab of the Notifications -> Settings page. See Default Notification Actions.Default Action Settings
To disable actions for this alarm, enable the Disable Actions button.
If you would like every event of this definition to trigger the actions you configured, disable Alarm Only. Otherwise, leave Alarm Only enabled.
If Alarm Only is enabled, the configured actions are initiated only by an alarm (as defined above in step 3). If Alarm Only is disabled, the actions are initiated by all events of this definition. For example, if the object type is CNode, and the Property is state , then if Alarm Only is disabled, any change in state of a CNode will initiate the actions you configured for this event.

Click Update to save the changes or click Update & Test to save your changes and send a test notification.
You can restore the default settings at any time by clicking Restore Defaults.
