Figure 35 Alarms are listed up to 200 at time and continue to scroll as events
occur.
For each Alarm, System Manager displays the alarm description and whether
the alarm is new (Set) or has been cleared (Clear). The same alarm will continue
to be listed as a set alarm until it has been cleared. If an alarm is not cleared, it
will be sent to the OMC (see “System Manager Alarm Descriptions” later in this
section). Other alarms might occur before an alarm clears, so the ‘set’ and ‘clear’
for the same alarm do not necessarily appear in sequence.
The Alarm Tag uniquely identifies each alarm using either the actual IP address
or hex digits to represent the IP address of the affected component. In the latter
case, the last four digits of the alarm tag represent the last two sets of digits of
the IP address of the component. For example, 0xc0a80679 represents
xxx.xxx.06.121. The IP address of the board generating the alarm is shown
under SrcAddress, or ‘source address’.
Board Type identifies which board within a chassis unit is affected (APC, CRIC,
etc.). For these alarms, select Click for chassis link to display the page for that
component.
