View and manage alarms, triggers, and
notification profiles
The application provides many default alarms, including status alarms, monitor alarms, and
trap alarms. If an upper or lower threshold is exceeded, an alarm configuration generates an
alarm.
You can view and manage the current alarms, and you can view and manage the alarm
history
. You can also add custom alarm configurations that are based on existing
configuration monitors.
One or more optional alarm notification profiles let you specify criteria that enable the
application to generate and send a notification email message if an alarm occurs.
The application provides the following four severity levels for alarms:
• Critical (by default, red color indication)
• Major (by default, yellow color indication)
• Minor (by default, blue color indication)
• Info (by default, no color indication)
The following sections describe the alarm-related tasks:
