The alerts.json file is only to pickup brand new alerts that are not currently 
defined in the system. It's more of a way to quickly seed Ambari with a default 
set of alerts. If the alert has already been created, any updates for that 
alert made in alerts.json will not be brought in. You'll need to use the REST 
APIs to update existing definitions.

You are correct that the agents run the alerts. The definitions.json file on 
each agent shows what alerts it is trying to run.

Hi,

I am currently trying to change the alert definitions. I used the REST api to 
put a new definition for example for id /30 . I can see the changes when doing 
a GET.

Additionaly I replaced the alert.json of the service under ambari-server and 
ambari-agent. Still the changes are not reflected in 
/var/lib/ambari-agent/cache/alerts/definition.json and I suspect the alert is 
not working as expected because of this.

As I undestand the defintions are broadcasted with heartbeats by the server? 
And are executed on the host by the agent, where the service is running? Right?

What am I missing?

Thanks,
Henning
