Probe CDM don't trigger alarm for static threshold for Memory or Disk or CPU

Cause

If you change the CDM configuration or you create a super package that containing the CDM configuration for Memory or Disk or CPU and you change the alarm active from yes to no will cause this issue.

Maybe you can see the alarm and alarm2 for Disk and CPU if you just change the configuration on the memory.
