Pop-Up Menu
The Configuration Alarms pop-up menu provides access to the following options. Right-click a row
to access these options.
Correlation State The role the alarm plays in any correlation, such as top-level alarm, caused by
parent, blocked by parent.
Domain The domain emitting the alarm.
Entity Name The entity emitting this alarm.
Entity Type The type of monitored entity.
Has Children An indicator that shows whether the alarm has children (checkmark) or not (X).
Highest Severity The highest severity assigned to the selected alarm.
Include child alarms An indicator that shows whether the alarm includes child alarms (checkmark) or
not (X).
Location The alarm’s location.
Notification Type
OID
The identifier for the notification displayed as an alarm.
Original Severity The original severity specified for the selected alarm.
Parent Alarm The name of the parent alarm.
Region The alarm’s region.
Resource Propagation The propagation for this alarm, if any.
Service Affecting Indicates whether the alarm is on equipment in a provisioned service (checkmark)
or not (X).
A service affecting alarm propagate to show as a component of service- and
customer-related alarms. Service-Affecting alarms are of indeterminate or greater
severity.
Service Propagation The alarm propagation if Service Affecting is true in the event definition.
This is similar to Resource Propagation, but controls only whether alarms affect
services associated with entities hierarchically related to the alarmed entity. For
example, if a port alarm is created and its event definition specifies that the
Service Propagation is Impacts Subcomponents, then the alarm propagates only
to the services associated with this port's interfaces. This does not affect the
services associated with the top-level device.
Suppressed An indicator whether the alarm is suppressed (checkmark) or not (X).
Suppression Date The date and time of the alarm’s suppression, if applicable.
Suppressor The alarm that suppresses the selected alarm.
