   1. Rule configuration.

      Parameter	Description
      Rule Name	The name of the alert rule.
      Alert Target Type	Select the alert target type: Instance, Tenant, or Data Migration. Different alert target types correspond to different available alert metrics. If the alert target type is Instance, you can select one or more transactional instances, analytical instances, or Key-Value instances. If the alert target type is Tenant, you can select one or more tenants under a transactional instance or Key-Value instance as the alert target. If the alert target type is Data Migration, you can select a data migration task as the alert target.
      Alert Type	Metric: Configure Alert Trigger Condition, Alert Metric, Alert Cycle, and Alert Frequency. Event: Configure Alert Event and Alert Frequency.
      Configuration Method	Custom: Add custom metrics as needed to configure the alert rule. Use Template: Use an existing template to quickly configure the alert rule. For information about how to create a trigger condition template, see Create a trigger condition template.
      Alert Trigger Timing	Select the operation mode for multiple metrics. You can choose Meet Any Condition or Meet All Conditions.
      Alert Metric	Select an alert metric from the Alert Metric drop-down list. For details about the meanings of the metrics, see Monitoring metrics for custom alerts. Set the condition for the metric in the Comparison Value, Operator, and Threshold drop-down lists.
      Add Metric	Click Add to add multiple metrics to the alert. The system will evaluate the results of the operations on these metrics based on the selected trigger timing.
