Last updated on:  2021-03-01

Authored by:  Rose Coste


Rackspace Intelligence provides an interface that you can use to create notification plans that work with your monitoring checks and alarms. You can define several ways to notify your team members with Notifications and then assemble those notifications into Notification Plans.

To create a new notification plan or edit an existing notification plan:

  1. Click Notify at the top of the Rackspace Intelligence interface.

  2. Click Notification Plans.

You can sort the list of notification plans by name, number of notifications, or number of alarms.

Sorting by the number of alarms can help you prioritize follow-up investigations.
