Migrate an alert action rule to an alert management rule
Existing alert action rules from an earlier release can be executed, but cannot be modified. Alert action rules that have been migrated become alert management rules and all the definitions of the alert action rules are migrated to the alert management rule format. Migrated rules can be modified.

Role required: evt_mgmt_admin
About this task
Existing alert action rules are active, read-only rules. An alert action rule can be modified only after it is migrated to an alert management rule.
To automate alert responses with an easier interface, you can also create a respond automation in Service Operations Workspace. For more information, see Create Respond automation.
Procedure
Navigate to All > Event Management > Rules > Alert Action Rules.
Select an alert action rule to migrate or delete.
Alert Action Rule form
Click Migrate.
If you clicked Migrate, the list of migrated rules can be found, together with new alert management rules, by navigating to Event Management > Rules > Alert Management.
After a successful migration, all the definitions of the alert action rules are migrated to the alert management rule format.
Result
When an alert action rule has been migrated successfully, the alert action rule can no longer be modified. However, the new alert management rule can be modified.
