show alarms [reverse]
Asynchronous events (also referred to as AENs or alarms) are originated by
firmware and captured by their respective device drivers. These events reflect
warning, debugging, and/or informative messages for the end user. These
events are kept in a finite queue inside the kernel, awaiting extraction by user
space programs such as CLI and/or 3DM.
The /cx show alarms command displays all available alarms on a given
controller. The default is to display the most recent alarm or AEN message
first. The user can also use the [reverse] attribute to display the most recent
alarm or AEN message last.
Alarms generated on 7000/8000 controllers do not have dates, so you will see
a '-' in the Date column. This means that it is not applicable. In addition,
alarm messages on 7000/8000 controllers contain the severity in the message
text, so the Severity column also shows a '-'.
Typical output looks like:
tw_cli> /c1 show alarms reverse
