Active Directory Health Analyzer alerts have two levels of severity: warning and critical. As a situation escalates, a warning alert is generated, indicating that a lower priority threshold has been violated. As the severity of the error increases, a critical alert is generated, indicating that the higher priority threshold has been exceeded. A number of attributes can be customized for each of these levels, including the threshold value, duration before an alert occurs and duration before an alert clears. See the Active Directory Health chapter in the Quest® Active Administrator® User Guide.
Current alerts display in grid view by default. Critical alerts are indicated in red and appear at the top of the list. Warning alerts are indicated in yellow and appear after the critical alerts. As alerts are cleared, they disappear from the list. You can view the cleared alert on the Alert History tab. See Viewing alert history.
For alerts you want to monitor more closely, you can pin them to the top of the list. You also can see which alerts are causing the most issues in the Linked Alerts area.
