100 Alarms | Key Portlets
Alarms
In its summary form, this portlet displays alarms
The chart can act as a filter, too. For example, clicking the
Critical alarms slice means only Critical
alarms appear listed. Notice also that the chart “explodes” to highlight the selected slice. Hover the
cursor over a portion of the chart and a tooltip with information about that slice also appears.
By default, the chart appears only when there are alarms. See Configuring the Alarms Chart below
for options available in configuring the display. See Menu on page 103 for details about menu items
available when you right-click in the summary and expanded portlets. The following columns
appear in this screen by default:
Severity —The alarm severity indicated by the color of the leftmost icon. The severity only has
meaning for Alarms and Security Alarms. Informational Alarms get a severity level of
Indeterminate. Closed alarms appear without color.
Date Opened —The date the alarm appeared.
Entity Name —The entity emitting this alarm (often within the Equipment).
DeviceIP —The IP address of the equipment where the alarm appeared.
