The Event Life Cycle
When a test condition is met, the event is triggered, and the agent notifies the Management Server. Scheduled administrators then receive notification via pager, e-mail, or both. An alert is then posted to the Alerts page of all administrators with View permission or higher. Each administrator who receives the alert can then view/edit the event occurrence, or log that they have seen it with the Acknowledge Alert command. Any administrator with Full permissions for an alert can reassign it to another administrator. Administrators can view alert details in the Event Viewer to determine how to resolve the problem. Once the test that generated the alert returns false, the alert clears and moves to the History page of all administrators who received the alert.
