Explanation

In ITIL Event Management, an Alert is a warning that a threshold has been reached or something has changed. It is a type of event that requires attention but may not necessarily indicate a failure. An alert is distinct from an error message, an incident, or an audit report - it is a notification that a predefined condition has occurred.
