# Legacy Grafana alerts
Grafana Alerting is enabled by default for new OSS installations. For older installations, it is still an [opt-in]({{< relref "../unified-alerting/opt-in/" >}}) feature.
> **Note**: Legacy dashboard alerts are deprecated and will be removed in Grafana 9. We encourage you to migrate to [Grafana Alerting]({{< relref "../unified-alerting/" >}}) for all existing installations.
Legacy dashboard alerts have two main components:
- Alert rule - When the alert is triggered. Alert rules are defined by one or more conditions that are regularly evaluated by Grafana.
- Notification channel - How the alert is delivered. When the conditions of an alert rule are met, the Grafana notifies the channels configured for that alert.
## Alert tasks
You can perform the following tasks for alerts:
- [Create an alert rule]({{< relref "create-alerts/" >}})
- [View existing alert rules and their current state]({{< relref "view-alerts/" >}})
- [Test alert rules and troubleshoot]({{< relref "troubleshoot-alerts/" >}})
- [Add or edit an alert contact point]({{< relref "notifications/" >}})
