Explanation:
Amazon CloudWatch alarm watches a single metric over a time period that the user specifies and performs
one or more actions based on the value of the metric relative to a given threshold over a number of time
periods. When the user has setup an alarm and it is know that for some unavoidable event the status may
change to Alarm, the user can disable the alarm using the DisableAlarmActions API or from the command line
mon-disable-alarm-actions.
