The configured Users were receiving the Alert notifications even before the configured Action Template on the ALERT AND LOG INCIDENT page.

A previously resolved Incident was linking with the Alert Event when a Network Device was Down for the second time.

For Example:

Consider a Network Device that was Down. As per the configured Action, Template and Incident Template Incident was logged and manually resolved. The same Network Device was Down again, an Alert Event got generated, and there was no Incident created as per the configured Action Template. But once the Device is up in next polling, the previously resolved Incident got linked with the Alert Event that was created for the second time Down status and information event that was created on device up status.

Now, the previously logged Incident is not linked with the Alert Event created for the second time down status of a Network Device.
