  • 1.  Spectrm - Alarm notifier only show last event message

    Posted Jun 24, 2021 11:23 AM
    Hi community,

    Have Alarm notifier in spectrum working to send alarms to third party platform. 
    We have a custom event config to map a Huawei trap to a alarm, but for some reason there is 2 events being raised when alarming, the first event raised is the custom event and have all the trap variables well mapped, and the 2º one  is the 0x10701 event that have a generic event message without those trap variables:



    In NOTIFIER.OUT i can see the custom alarm being raised with the last event message (0x10701), but i need to have in the original trap variables values in the alarm, How can i achieve that? Is anyway of passing the vars to the 0x10701 event ?



    Thanks for the help in advanced.

    Best Regards

    Is the 0x00010701 event configured to generate an alarm? If so, that is a customization as that event is not configure to generate an alarm out of the box.

    There are also a few of parameters in the .alarmrc file that could address this if the 0x00010701 event is not configured to generate an alarm.

    It may be one of the following or a combination:

    SHOW_ALL_EVENTS This parameter allows you to specify whether you want
    to display all events for the given alarm, or only the
    most recent event. False (the default value) or True.

    SEND_EVENT_UPDATES This parameter allows you to specify whether you want
    an update action to be triggered when an event is
    appended to an alarm. True (the default value) or False.

    SHOW_ONLY_ORIGINATING_EVENT
    This parameter essentially disables the AlarmNotifier's
    use of the Archive Manager, and therefore can only
    display the event that originated the alarm. If this
    option is set, the Store_Originating_Event
    attribute( 0x1296f ) must be set to TRUE( the default )
    on the AlarmMgmt model of every SpectroSERVER.
    False( the default value ) or True.

    Hi Joseph,

    Awesome, "SHOW_ALL_EVENTS ", that was the solution...enable it and all the events messages appeared, just a question of some text work and the goal was accomplish :-D

    Many thanks for your help
