Yellow (Warning) The System Status icon is yellow when an alert exists that has a status
of Degraded or Unavailable. This indicates a condition of which you should be aware,
but which does not require immediate attention.

only alerts that exist are to inform you. The System Status icon returns to green when
all alerts higher than Inform are acknowledged.
