Question

An administrator has been tasked with creating a custom alert for an object in VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Operations. When creating the alert, the administrator completes the following:

  • A new symptom definition: Read Latency (ms) is higher than 1 ms.
  • A new alert definition: alert is triggered as soon as the latency is

higher than the 1 ms defined in the symptom definition.

  • Select Virtual Machine (VM) as the Object type.

What additional step must the administrator take to complete the stated objective and ensure the alert is triggered?

Options

  • AEnable the alert in an Active Policy.
  • BCreate a new Payload Template.
  • CCreate an instance of the REST Notification Plugin.
  • DCreate and enable a super metric for read latency in the Active Policy.

Explanation

For any alert definition to be active in the environment, it must be associated with and enabled in an Active Policy. Creating symptom and alert definitions only defines conditions; they do not generate alerts until policies include them. REST notification plugins or payload templates are used for outbound integrations, not for enabling alerts. A super metric is only needed for custom composite KPIs, not for native read latency which is a standard metric already available. Therefore, the required step is to enable the alert in an Active Policy so that when the symptom triggers (latency > 1 ms), the alert activates.
