Limiting the base alarms

In the Correlation module, the Actions section of the details pane allows you to limit the base alarms for a Correlation rule, as an alternative to or in addition to adding alarm filters.

  1. In the Actions section, click Add Option and select Limit the base alarms.

  2. Click Select a filter.

  3. Select one of the listed properties and create a filter condition, or select Saved filters and select an existing alarm filter.

    Note

    Private alarm filters are not available for use in Correlation rules.

  4. If necessary, select the option Include all Alarms generated ... before and after the moment this rule was triggered and specify a time span.

    When you select this option, any alarms that match the filter and occur within the indicated time span will be included in the same correlated alarm.

    Note

    It is also possible to select this option without specifying a filter. In this case, any alarm events matching the rule that were detected during the indicated time span will be included as base alarm events.
