An administrator has configured an alarm to be notified when a virtual machine meets two conditions: high virtual CPU high active memory consumption The alarm is malfunctioning and triggering when…

Selecting 'Trigger if ALL of the following conditions are satisfied' enforces AND logic, meaning the alarm will only fire when both the high virtual CPU condition and the high active memory condition are true at the same time, which matches the intended behavior.

Selecting 'Trigger if ANY of the following conditions are satisfied' applies OR logic, which is the current misconfigured state causing the alarm to fire when either condition alone is met.

Creating two separate alarms would generate independent alerts for CPU and memory individually, but would not enforce the requirement that both conditions must be true simultaneously before notifying.

Deleting the alarm and creating an event-based alarm is incorrect because event-based alarms respond to discrete vSphere events, not continuous condition monitoring of CPU and memory metrics.
