Fairly new to Solarwinds and trying to get my head around alerts and events. Understand the idea of alerts and how to set them up etc....But what are the events used for. Does an event get triggered by something other than alert, or do you need an alert to raise an event ( and why would you bother ). When would you use events over alerts. All the doco seems to talk about setting alerts and events up but not why one of the other.
