Responding to Alarm Log Records


On the Alarm Log page, you can perform (batch) acknowledgments, create work orders, and create service requests for alarms configured with alarm response rules.

  • Acknowledgment: After the alarm has been triggered, you can acknowledge alarms to avoid repeated responses.
  • Work order and service requests creation: After the alarm is triggered, you can report issues and submit O&M requests by creating tickets.
  • Close Alarms: Alarms that cannot be automatically restored can be manually disabled to make the alarm inactive.
