About alarms
Alarms are warnings generated by events. Alarms communicate the same
information as events. However, alarms are reported in the Alarm Monitor
instead of the Event Browser and are managed differently than events:
•

•
Each alarm in the Alarm Monitor has Help text that often provides a solution
to the problem. If the solution is not apparent, use the Event Browser or the
Maintenance screen to further investigate the problem.

Alarms appear in the Alarm Monitor for Minor, Major, and Critical events
(not Information events). All events can be reported in the Event Browser
(depending on the filtering criteria defined in the Event Browser).
The first time an event occurs, it generates an alarm that appears in
the Alarm Monitor. If the same event continues to occur, a new alarm
is not generated. Instead, the time and date assigned to the original
generated alarm is updated.
Alarms can be cleared from the Alarm Monitor, but the event that
generated the alarm is not cleared from the event log or the Event
Browser.
