Suppressing Notifications

The suppression functionality allows users to define a symptom for which they do not want to be
notified. It is generally used when a system is "spewing" many of the same type of events and a
user does not want to keep getting notified for them. Using the suppression functionality allows
notifications to continue for the site, product, or group on all but the identified suppression record.
