The EPICenter Alarm System

The standard EPICenter menus appear at the top of the window. For information on these menus, see
“EPICenter Menus” on page 32 . Immediately below the menus are the Alarm system module tabs.
Below these tabs are a set of function buttons for the currently displayed module.
The Alarm Log Browser page displays a summary of the alarms that have occurred, optionally filtered
based on criteria you can specify.
By default, if you have a device selected in another EPICenter applet when you run the Alarm Browser,
EPICenter filters the display for the selected device. The filter EPICenter created appears in the Current
Filter field; you can save it if you want to be able to reuse it later. Otherwise, the default filter displays
the last 300 alarms.
An alarm can be generated due to an SNMP or RMON trap, a syslog message, or based on the results
of a poll. By default, all the predefined alarms are enabled; therefore, you may see alarm log entries the
first time you run the Alarm System, even if you have not defined any alarms of your own.
The Alarm Log Browser Summary
The Alarm Log Browser summary displays all the alarms that match the selected filter.
●
The Current Filter field at the top of the display shows the current filter definition. There are four
predefined filters:
You can select one of these filters from the pull-down field just below the Current Filter label.
●
The Alarms indicator to the right of the Current Filter field shows the number of Alarm instances
that matched the filter.
The summary displays the following information for each alarm instance:
7 days ago View alarms that occurred one week ago
Default View the most recent 300 entries
Last 24 hours View alarms that occurred within the last 24 hours
Yesterday View alarms that occurred yesterday (the 24 hours from starting at 12:01 am yesterday)
ID An integer number assigned by the EPICenter Alarm System based on the order in which the
alarm occurred
Name A name for the alarm, provided when the alarm is defined
Category An optional user-defined classification that defaults to “Default”
Severity The severity level associated with the alarm when it was defined, indicated by both name and
color. The small bell symbols also appear in the Component Tree in other EPICenter applets, to
indicate that an alarm has occurred on the device.
The Severity Levels and the related colors are as follows:
• Normal, green
• Warning, blue
• Minor, yellow
• Major, orange
• Critical, red
Source The IP address of the device that generated the trap or responded to a poll
Time The date and time at which the alarm was received
