10.3.1.3 Alarm Severity Option
You change or assign alarm severity using a menu. To view this menu, right-click the alarm you want to
change in its alarm profile column. Seven severity levels appear for the alarm:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Transparent and Unset only appear in alarm profiles; they do not appear when you view alarms, history,
or conditions.
10.3.1.4 Row Display Options
In addition to the alarm profile tabs, the Alarm Behavior tab displays two checkboxes at the bottom of
the screen: Hide default values and Hide identical rows. The Hide default values checkbox highlights
alarms with non-default severities by clearing alarm cells with default severities. The Hide identical rows
checkbox hides rows of alarms that contain the same severity for each profile.
10.3.2 Applying Alarm Profiles
In CTC card view, the Alarm Behavior subtab displays the alarm profiles of the selected card. In node
view, the Alarm Behavior subtab displays alarm profiles for the node. Alarms form a hierarchy. A
node-level alarm profile applies to all cards in the node, except those that have their own profiles. A
card-level alarm profile applies to all ports on the card, except those that have their own profiles.
At the node level, you may apply profile changes on a card-by-card basis or set a profile for the entire
node.
