Composite rule Alarm
====================
The *composite* type alarm allows users to specify a composite rule to define
an alarm with multiple triggering conditions, using a combination of *and* and
*or* relations. A composite rule is composed of multiple threshold rules or
gnocchi rules. A sample composite alarm request form is as follows::
{
"name": "test_composite",
"type": "composite",
"composite_rule": {
"and": [THRESHOLD_RULE1, THRESHOLD_RULE2, {
'or': [THRESHOLD_RULE3, GNOCCHI_RULE1,
GNOCCHI_RULE2, GNOCCHI_RULE3]
}]
}
}
A sub-rule in composite_rule is same as a threshold_rule in threshold alarm
or a gnocchi_rule in gnocchi alarm. Additionally it has a mandatory *type*
field to specify the rule type, like in the following sample::
{
"threshold": 0.8,
"meter_name": "cpu_util",
"type": "threshold"
}
