Alert System

The alert system provides the following features:

Generates alerts, displaying them locally and/or forward them via

email messages.

Alerts are set and cleared by the daemons that own them. Active

alerts are locally displayed and can be cleared manually.

Multiple forwarders can be configured, a configurable filter level

controls alert forwarding to each forwarder.

By configuring different forwarders, low severity and high severity control
centers can be set up.

Each alert is mapped to an alert definition entry, which is predefined by a daemon
who owns the alert or by a user. All alert definition entries are configurable by user.
An alert filter is a user defined configuration to define the forwarders destination of
active alerts. Any active alerts with Renotify Interval set to non-zero value and
matches with the filter level will be forwarded to the defined forwarder destination.
