Description
Alarm
—
an alarm is a "serviceable event". This means that attention by
the user or field service is required. Alarms are posted asynchronously
to the screen and cannot be turned off. If the alarm denotes that a sys-
tem error has occurred the customer and/or field representative will
generally be directed to provide a "show support" capture of the switch.
Critical event
—
an event that indicates a potential failure. Critical log
messages are events that warrant notice by the user. By default, these
log messages will be posted to the screen. Critical log messages do not
have alarm status as they require no immediate attention from a user or
service representative.
Warning event
—
an event that indicates errors or other conditions that
may require attention to maintain maximum performance. Warning mes-
sages will not be posted to the screen unless the log is configured to do
so. Warning messages are not disruptive and, therefore, do not meet
the criteria of Critical. The user need not be informed asynchronously
No icon
Informative
—
an unclassified event that provides supporting informa-
tion.
