Need Help Managing Event Output for Memory Usage

Subject: Need Help Managing Event Output for Memory Usage

We have several thresholds that are condition and time based
For example, Unix Memory Usage:
30 Mins above 97% Used = Critical alert
30 mins above 95% Used = Error alert
60 Mins above 90% Used = Warning alert

The problem we are facing is that the events come in, one warning, one error and one critical, but they all have the same summary "High Memory Utilization: Currently X percent used" This makes the event console look very cluttered.

We have a transform set in the /perf/memory/ event class to transform the summary of the event to "High Memory Utilization: Currently X percent used" and this transform also drops events based on count to aid in the time based threshold.

Is there a way to display the actual threshold name being breached in the summary, so that all the events dont have the same summary
