The Create Alert activity is used in a runbook to create a new alert in System Center Operations Manager that originated from another system monitor product.

The first time you run this activity in a runbook, it installs the Orchestrator Integration Library Management Pack in System Center Operations Manager. The Create Alert activity creates an event in System Center Operations Manager, which the Orchestrator Integration Library Management Pack then translates into a System Center Operations Manager alert.

Important

When the Create Alert activity runs for the first time, it does not create an alert. The workaround is to run it again. The new alert is created after the activity is run a second time.

The following tables list the properties and published data for this activity. The activity publishes all of the data from the required and optional properties into published data. The Custom Field properties correspond to Custom Field Numbered Items in System Center Operations Manager. For example, Custom Field1 in System Center Operations Manager corresponds to CustomField1 in the Create Alert activity.
