Update the subscription<\/h3>\n

Depending on the subscription criteria, you may need to adjust the classes, or rules\/monitors, or even the criteria (properties)<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Example<\/strong><\/p>\n

Using Subscription Description for more details into what is filtered, who alert is delivered to, and the channel used<\/p>\n
