Returns:
[`vim.alarm.Alarm`_]:

AreAlarmActionsEnabled(entity):
Returns true if alarm actions are enabled on the specified managed entity.

Privilege:
Args:
entity (`vim.ManagedEntity`_):
The managed entity to look up.
Returns:
`bool`_:
EnableAlarmActions(entity, enabled):
Enables or disables alarms on the specified managed entity.
since: `vSphere API 4.0`_
Privilege:
Args:

true, if alarms are enabled during the schedule.
Returns:
None
GetAlarmState(entity):
The state of instantiated alarms on the entity.
Privilege:
Args:
entity (`vim.ManagedEntity`_):

Returns:
[`vim.alarm.AlarmState`_]:
The state of instantiated alarms.
Raises:

if the referenced entity is null.
`vmodl.fault.ManagedObjectNotFound`_:
