Alert recommendations are the remediation options that you provide to your users toresolve the problems that the generated alert indicates. When you add an alert definition that indicates a problem with objects in your monitored environment, add a relevant recommendation. Recommendations can be instructions to your users, links to other information or instruction sources, or vRealize Operations actions that run on the target systems1. Alert recommendations are not always linked to a Knowledge Base article, and they can be created or modified by the user2.
