Explanation
vCenter alarms support two trigger modes: 'ANY' (logical OR - fires when at least one condition is true) and 'ALL' (logical AND - fires only when every condition is simultaneously true). Since the alarm is only triggering when both high vCPU and high active memory conditions are met, it is currently set to 'ALL'. Changing it to 'Trigger if ANY of the following conditions are satisfied' will make the alarm fire when either condition is independently met, which matches the administrator's intent.
