All,
Currently, event-alarm is one-shot style: don't fire again for same event.  But 
threshold-alarm is limited periodic style:
1. only get 1 fire for continuous valid datapoints.
2. Would get a new fire if insufficient data followed by valid ones, as we reset 
alarm state upon insufficient data.

So maybe event-alarm should be periodic also. But I'm not sure when to reset the 
alarm state to 'UNKNOWN': after each fire, or when receive different event.

Best Rgds,
