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.
