What Can You Do with AME?
Imagine managing alerts with Alert Manager Enterprise (AME): install it, create and tag events, automate statuses and resolutions, notify users across channels, trigger workflow actions, enforce SLAs, and report outcomes—all within the default tenant.
Prerequisites
- AME installed with Splunk Admin or
ame.admin
role (see Quick Start).
What You Can Do
- Install AME: Get AME running on Splunk to manage events (see Quick Start).
- Define Event Templates: Preset details like
medium
urgency (see Templates). - Tag Events: Apply a
PCI
tag when subnet192.168.1.0/24
matches (see Tags). - Automate Status Changes: Set events to
Assigned
upon user assignment (see Rules). - Set Resolutions: Auto-resolve events based on conditions (see Resolutions).
- Customize Event Summary: Tailor fields and layouts in the summary view (see Event Summary Configuration).
- Send Notifications: Alert assignees via email, Slack, or Teams on assignment (see Notifications).
- Invoke Workflow Actions: Run a Splunk webhook from
Notable Fields
(see Working with Events). - Enforce SLAs: Track a 60-minute response SLA, ending at
Assigned
(see SLAs). - Generate Reports: Review SLA compliance and trends (see Reports).
- Test the Flow: Create an event, assign a user, and watch AME tag, update, notify via Slack/Teams, trigger a webhook, enforce SLAs, and report (see Working with Events).
Optional: Scale with Tenants
- Add a
Ops
tenant to isolate events across teams (see Tenants).
