5.3 Real-time BCM Fault/Alarms Management

You can view and manage real-time alarms generated by the BCM system.
Alarms arise from components that are running on the system; these alarms
indicate faults or informational conditions that may require resolution from the
system administrator. Examples of alarm conditions include:
• T1 circuit on the system is down
• Service running on the BCM has been stopped by an administrator
Alarm information can be delivered to you by any of the following means:
• The Alarms Panel in the BCM Element Manager
• The Alarm Banner in the BCM Element Manager
• Core telephony alarms show on the alarm set
• Simple Network Management Protocol (SNMP) traps for remote
management of faults
• LEDs on the BCM main unit
Below is an example of the BCM Alarms Panel in the BCM Element Manager:
You can manage alarms and alarm information by:
• Configuring alarm settings, for example filtering alarms so that only the
desired subset of alarms are displayed in the BCM Element Manager
Alarms Panel or sent as SNMP traps
• Administering alarms, for example acknowledging selected alarms and
clearing the alarm log
