Alarms | Key Portlets
Menu
Right clicking an alarm lets you select from the following
menu items:
Edit—Access the editors for the Alarm (see Alarm Editor
Edit—Access the editors for the Alarm (see Alarm Editor
on page 131) or Event Definition (see Event
Details—Open a Details screen for the alarm itself, not the
entity emitting it. (see Equipment Details on page
210 for an example of this type of screen). This
contains information like the MIB text, any Event
Processing Rules invoked, and a Reference Tree for the
alarm.
Visualize—Display a topology map that includes the selected alarm(s). See Chapter 7, Display
Strategies for more about these maps.
Acknowledge / Unacknowledge Alarm—Acknowledges the selected Alarm(s). The current date
and time appear in the Ack Time field. Unacknowledges previously acknowledged alarm(s),
and clears the entries in the Ack By and Ack Time fields. The red “unacknowledged” icon
appears in the expanded portlet and turns to a green check “acknowledged” icon the alarm
has been acknowledged.
Assign User—Assign this alarm to one of the users displayed in the sub-menu by selecting that
user. An icon also appears in the expanded portlet indicating the alarm has been assigned to
someone.
Clear Alarm—Clearing the alarm removes the alarm from the default alarm view and marks it as a
candidate for the database archiving process (DAP). Essentially it is an indication to the
system that the alarm has been resolved/addressed. If your system has enabled propagation
policies, clearing recalculates dependent alarms.
Direct Access—Open an SNMP Mib Browser to the device alarmed, a CLI Terminal (Telnet
window) to the device alarmed, or ICMP Ping the device alarmed. Only those available
appear in the subsequent menu.
Email Alarm—E-mail the alarm. Enter a subject an e-
mail address to which you want to mail the alarm’s
content, and click the + to add to the list of
addresses (the minus deletes them). Then click
Send Email. Clicking Cancel ends this operation
without sending e-mail. See SMTP Configuration
on page 89 for instructions about setting up e-mail
from Dell OpenManage Network Manager. See
Alarm Email on page 129 for an example of what
the content looks like.
