6. Click Apply Changes at the bottom of the page.
7. In the Custom Alarms section of the Configuration tab, click the edit icon, and define new SLSA (CPU Load Average) alarms to replace the ones you disabled in the previous steps.
   When creating the new alarms, choose values that are appropriate for number of cores available.
