To subscribe to a built-in detector, you need to do the following steps:

Find the built-in detector that you want to subscribe to.You can use the metric finder or the dashboard groups to locate the built-in detectors that are relevant to your data sources1.

Hover over the built-in detector and click the Subscribe button.This will open a dialog box where you can configure your subscription settings1.

Choose an outbound notification channel from the drop-down menu. This is where you can specify how you want to receive the alert notifications from the built-in detector.You can choose from various channels, such as email, Slack, PagerDuty, webhook, and so on2.You can also create a new notification channel by clicking the + icon2.

Enter the notification details for the selected channel.This may include your email address, Slack channel name, PagerDuty service key, webhook URL, and so on2.You can also customize the notification message with variables and markdown formatting2.

Click Save. This will subscribe you to the built-in detector and send you alert notifications through the chosen channel when the detector triggers or clears an alert.

I thought cloning was just for testing, not for exploring creation methods.

Adding recipients to alerts is a solid reason too!

Rory 11 months ago

Wait, can cloning really reduce billed TAPM? Sounds off.

Totally agree, option A is spot on!

Graciela 11 months ago

Cloning helps modify rules without messing with the original.

I remember a practice question where we discussed adding recipients to alerts. I think C is definitely a valid reason.

I'm not entirely sure about B; I feel like it might be related to billing, but it doesn't seem like a strong reason to clone.

I think cloning a detector is mainly about making changes without impacting the original, so A and D seem right.

Cloning a detector sounds like a useful feature, but I'm not familiar with the specifics of when and why you'd want to do that. I'll have to read the options closely and see if I can figure it out.

Elroy 1 year ago

Okay, let's see. I know cloning a detector allows you to modify the rules without affecting the existing one, so that's definitely one reason. The other options seem plausible too, but I'll double-check to make sure.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I'll need to review my notes on GPON protection schemes to make sure I choose the right answer. Better to take my time than guess.

Roslyn 1 year ago

Okay, let me think this through step-by-step. I know I need to compare the cost and schedule variances to find the largest one.

I'm a bit confused by the wording of the question. I'll need to re-read it a few times to make sure I'm understanding it correctly before selecting an answer.

I'm just hoping the exam doesn't ask me to clone myself. That would be a whole other can of worms!
