Description

Request to add online documentation listing all Ambari Alerts checks, script locations and description around what each one does.

You can get most of this information from an Ambari instance's Alerts section, but I think this should still be documented online so that people can see this information if they don't have an Ambari instance available. This will allow one to see what is and isn't covered at any time, which is useful when advising on what additional enterprising monitoring to supplement or when raising requests for additional Ambari checks by cross checking what is already there.
