About Alarm Severity and Conditions
Table 63: Alarm and Severity Conditions
Critical indicates that a severe, usually service-affecting condition has occurred
and that immediate corrective action is imperative, regardless of the time of day or
day of the week.
Major is used for hardware or software conditions that indicate a serious disruption
of service or the malfunctioning or failure of important circuits. These troubles
require the immediate attention and response of a craft person to restore or
maintain system capability. The urgency is less than in critical situations because
of a lesser immediate or impending effect on service or system performance.
Minor is used for troubles that do not have a serious effect on service to customers
or for troubles in circuits that are not essential to system operations.
The Not Alarmed condition is not reported as an alarm. It can be viewed as a NA
condition in the Alarms and Condition tables in the appropriate views.
The Not Reported condition is not reported at all and does not appear in the
Alarms and Condition tables.
The Cleared Alarm notification code appears only in the Alarm History table in
the Alarms pane indicating clearance of an alarm.
