Retrieving Alarm Messages
Alarms can be displayed in noncontinuous mode or in continuous mode.
Noncontinuous Mode
To display all current alarms, use the rtrv-alms MML command.
Figure 5-1 shows an example of an alarm message displayed with the rtrv-alms MML command
(noncontinuous mode). For more information about the rtrv-alms MML command, see Appendix A,
“MML User Interface and Command Reference.”
Figure 5-1 Sample Alarm Message
The example in Figure 5-1 shows a Cisco Public Switched Telephone Network (PSTN) Gateway
(PGW 2200) communication failure on the Cisco HSI that has the node ID H323-GW1. The resulting
message is an alarm with a major severity level.
Continuous Mode
To display the names of active alarms and new alarm events, use the rtrv-alms:cont MML command.
Table 5-3 defines the message components that are displayed when the rtrv-alms:cont MML command
is used. The following is sample output from this command. For more information about the
rtrv-alms:cont MML command, see
Appendix A, “MML User Interface and Command Reference.”
