Description

Alert targets cannot currently be disabled. In order to temporarily stop alerts, the following actions are required:

• Deleting the alert target
• Removing all states from an alert target
• Changing the properties of an alert target to make it invalid
• Placing the entire cluster into Maintenance Mode

In each case, the state of the system is being changed to achieve a side-effect.

Alert targets should support being disabled as a first class action.
