Alarms in Visualizations / Topologies
Colored rectangles appear around 
topology nodes to indicate the highest 
alarm on them. Expand or drill in to see 
alarms on the sub-components.
For information about the alarm, hover 
your cursor over the device or 
subcomponent, and a tooltip appears 
describing the alarm’s severity appears. 
The alarms indicated are like alarms 
described in the portlet Alarms on page 
123. 
By default, un-alarmed nodes appear clear / white. You can alter this so they appear green instead. 
To change this behavior, uncomment the 
nodes.display.clear.severity.as.green=true
 property in the server-
overrides.properties.sample
 file in \oware\synergy\conf, and save the file as 
serveroverrides.properties
 in that directory.
Links in Visualization
When you have discovered links between devices in your network (see 
Link Discovery on page 208), they appear in the visualization.
Hover the cursor over a link, and a panel the color of the link’s alarm 
severity, appears with the link information (Name, Type (for example: 
Ethernet), Severity, and A / Z Names for the endpoints).
Dell OpenManage Network Manager currently does not support 
displaying one-ended links.
Expanding to 
see the 
alarmed sub-
component.
