Working with alarm definition groups

The following topics describe common tasks you will perform when you are working with alarm definition groups:

Task

Reference

Creating an alarm definition group

Renaming an alarm definition group

Copying an alarm definition group

Enabling the evaluation of an alarm definition group

Disabling the evaluation of an alarm definition group

Creating and editing Alarm Management parameter files

Tip

Avoid using alarm definition group names that are greater than 8 characters in length. While group names can be up to 16 characters, because of space constraints, the alarm views display only the first 8 characters of the names. You will not see the complete group name if it is longer than 8 characters.

If you want to use group names that are longer than 8 characters, you might want to create customized views that display up to the full 16-character names.
