Alarm Action Manager allows you to automatically respond to alarms in your system with a predetermined action called an Action Rule. By automating your response to certain alarms, you are free to concentrate on other administrative task. You may define as many Action Rules as you need to manage your network.
Action Rules are added to the Alarm Action Manager to define an action (response) to an alarm. Multiple actions may be assigned to a rule.
The Alarm Action Manager table displays one rule per row using the following columns:
| Column | Description |
|---|---|
|
Assignment |
Specifies if a template defining an Action Rule is marked for use. |
|
Template Name |
The name of the template defining an Action Rule. |
Once a template is added to the Alarm Action Manager, you can edit, copy, or delete it by selecting (highlighting) a template and then clicking on the appropriate link that appears to the right of the template.
