4 Alarm configuration
The Alarm Configuration component in the Event Manager is used to define
settings for alarm handling. You can define alarm rules, filter rules and general
settings. The alarm rules define which alarms are forwarded from which servers
to which destinations (see section "Alarm rules" on page 39). The filter rules
define which types of alarm are filtered out (see section "Filter rules" on
page 55). In the general settings you define the handling of all incoming and
unfiltered alarms (see section "Making settings" on page 58). How to start the
component is described in the section "Starting the Event Manager" on
page 15.
