Then you can assign the newly created action to an event rule or schedule it. See
Alarm
The Alarm is an action that requires users to acknowledge an alert. This helps ensure that the user is aware of the alert.
If the Alarm action has been included in a specific event rule and no one acknowledges that alert after it occurs, the PDU
resends or regenerates an alert notification regularly until the alert is acknowledged or the maximum number of alert
notifications is sent.
