Creating an Alarm
Alarms you create in the Amazon Redshift console are Amazon CloudWatch alarms.They are useful
because they help you make proactive decisions about your cluster and its databases.You can set one
or more alarms on any of the metrics listed in Amazon Redshift CloudWatch Metrics (p.68). For example,
setting an alarm for high CPUUtilization on a cluster node will help indicate when the node is
over-utilized. Likewise, setting an alarm for low CPUUtilization on a cluster node, will help indicate
when the node is underutilized.
This section explains how to create an alarm using the Amazon Redshift console.You can create an
alarm using the Amazon CloudWatch console or any other way you typically work with metrics such as
with the Amazon CloudWatch Command Line Interface (CLI) or one of the Amazon Software Development
Kits (SDKs).To delete an alarm, you must use the Amazon CloudWatch console.
