Silencing and Testing the Audible Alarm
By default, when a Warning- or Error-level event (see
) occurs
on any system in the Enterprise View, an audible alarm is triggered on
the local system. The alarm is a series of beeps, which sound every five
minutes until the event is resolved.
You can change the frequency and duration of the alarm, or choose to
disable the alarm on any system. See
Changing a System’s Audible Alarm
for more information.
This section describes how to:
●
Ensure the alarm is working on your local system (see below).
●
Silence a sounding alarm (see
).
●
Disable the alarm for a selected controller (see
