Alarm Message Match Criteria
When creating or updating a Notification Profile, a new criteria, "When any Alarm Message matches <Input text field>", is now available. Click here to learn more about Notification profile criteria.
This feature allows users to define custom conditions using text or regex patterns to filter alarm messages. If an alarm message for a device matches the specified text or regex pattern, the associated Notification Profile will be triggered.
Input Field Guidelines
Ensure the input is precise and adheres to the supported formats to effectively match and trigger the desired notification profile.
Supported Content Types
- Plain Text: Any sequence of alphanumeric characters.
- Regular Expressions: Valid regex patterns for advanced and dynamic text matching.

(?=.*XXX)(?=.*YYY) |
(?=.*Memory Utilization)(?=.*java.exe) |

| OR |
(XXX)|(YYY) |
(Memory Utilization)|(CPU Utilization) |
1. Memory Utilization is now back to normal
2. CPU Utilization is 10%, threshold value for this monitor is 1% |
Restricted Characters and Patterns
Certain characters and regex patterns are restricted as they can lead to overly broad matches, capturing all alarm messages.
Restricted Characters and Patterns:
- *
- .
- .*
- |
- +
- ^.*$
- (.*)?
- (?=)
- (?<=)
- [\s\S]+ and similar patterns
- [\d\D]* and similar patterns
- [\u0000-\uFFFF] and similar patterns
- .{0,} and similar patterns
- {1,} and similar patterns
Note: To ensure accurate and effective filtering, avoid using overly generic regex patterns. Carefully define your criteria to align with the specific alarms you wish to target.
