Filter Datastore Connectivity Alarms

In order to monitor storage connectivity issues, we have the "Cannot connect to storage" alarm configured. Whenever we mount/unmount a Veeam NFS datastore, it triggers an alarm. I've tried disabling the alarm actions on the datastore. Additionally, I've set the "Cannot connect to storage" triggers to set the "Datastore ID not equal to" the ID of the Veeam datastore. Unfortunately, the alarms persist. Is there a better way to silence unnecessary datastore alarms?

Other than the datastores Veeam presents as vPower mounts, do you have other NFS datastores in your environment? If not, you can just remove the "Lost connection to NFS server" trigger altogether.
