Cb Protection: An alert of the same type with the same criteria already exists

Cb Protection: An alert of the same type with the same criteria already exists

Environment

  • Cb Protection - All Versions

Symptoms

  • When creating a new alert in the Cb Protection console, the following error is shown at the top of the alert page
  • An alert of the same type with the same criteria already exists.  Please configure a unique alert.

Cause

Cb Protection does not allow for creating alerts with the same criteria, even if those alerts are applied to different policies. 

Resolution

  1. If at all possible, add the existing alert to any additional policies that you need to apply it to.
  2. Otherwise, modify the alert slightly where possible to avoid it being a "duplicate"

Additional Notes

Internally tracked under EA-12379
