Running a Custom Script

In one of my alert I want to a trigger a script (to reboot the Linux sever) when a specific condition is met.
I have my search query ready. When I click on the 'run a script' option it says , "Create a custom alert action to package a custom script instead. "
Can anyone guide me what is this custom action alert package ?

Hi,

the "run a script" alert action is deprecated (unfortunately). You have to adapt to the new way, the so-called "custom alerts". You can read about it here and here.
