Section 3 Configuration Alarm and Events
3BSE037076-510 D 59
The Alarm and Event List configured on the subscriber to show the alarms from the
provider systems must be reconfigured to show the column SystemName. The
SystemName column shows the name of the provider system, i.e the name of the
Remote system object.
Alarm Manager Configuration
For consistent and correct behavior in the connected systems it is important that the
Alarm Manager configuration is properly configured. The following
recommendation for the Special Configuration must be followed:
1. Use the same settings for Alarm Handling in the provider and the subscriber
system.
2. Also use the same setting for Event Logging in the provider and the subscriber
system.
3. Make sure that Alarm Storage in the subscriber system is large enough to hold
both the local alarms and the remote alarms. If for example the subscriber
system is connected to one provider system, the size should be double and so
on.
