Owner
The owner (creator) of the Alarm entry. By default, "AlliedView-EMS Device
Manager - station name" is used where "station name" represents the host name of
the station on which Device Manager is running.
Startup Alarm Type
The type of threshold which is applied to the first sampled value after this Alarm
entry becomes valid.
rising alarm
A single RMON event is triggered if the first sampled value is greater than or equal
to the configured rising threshold.
falling alarm
A single RMON event is triggered if the first sampled value is less than or equal to
the configured falling threshold.
\
rising or falling alarm
A single RMON event is triggered if the first sampled value is greater than or equal
to the configured rising threshold, or if the first sampled value is less than or equal
to the configured falling threshold.
Note - The Startup Alarm Type is only applied to the first sampled value. From the
second sampled value, both the rising and falling thresholds are effective regardless
of the Startup Alarm Type. If only one type of threshold is significant, set the "Event
Index" for the Alarm type that is not required to 0. For example, if you want to
monitor only the rising threshold, set the Falling Event Index to 0. No event occurs
for an Event Index of 0, even if the values reach the threshold.
Rising Alarm Event Rule
Configuration for the rising alarm. If you select "falling alarm" for the Startup Alarm
Type, only "Rising Threshold" and "Rising Event Index" can be configured. If there is
no Event entry corresponding to the Event Index, no event will occur.
Rising Threshold
The ceiling threshold. If the monitored variable exceeds this threshold, the rising
alarm is invoked. The default is 3000.
Event Type
The type of action to be taken when the event occurs. Select one of "none" (no
action taken), "SNMP trap" (send out an SNMP trap), "log" (record to the log) and
"log & SNMP trap" (record to the log and send out an SNMP trap).
Rising Event Index
Index of the RMON Event entry which is triggered when the sampled value reaches
the rising threshold. If you select "falling alarm" for the Start Alarm Type, this
defaults to zero. Because an Event Index of 0 is invalid and there is no event related
to Index 0, no event will occur even if the rising alarm is triggered.
