Alerting

Why do the alerts not have a delete or schedule option in the search head?

The customer has 3 search heads in a cluster environment, they have pushed savedsearches.conf from the deployer. Now they are unable to delete or schedule those alerts via Splunk web, it is grayed out

I'm answering my own question:

When you push the savedsearches from the deployer, it will become Baseline knowledge objects for search head where you cannot move, share or schedule via splunk web. This is default splunk behaviour. For information on baseline objects please refer below document.

How does one delete the Alert when there is no Delete option in the Alert's Edit Menu?
