Configuring the Alarm Reporting Delay Function
Context
When an alarm is reported repeatedly, users cannot locate faults in an efficient manner. After the alarm reporting delay function is enabled and the delay is configured, a large number of repeated alarms are prevented from being reported.
After the alarm reporting delay function is enabled:
- If no clear alarm is generated during the period, the alarm is reported to the NMS when the period expires.
- If a clear alarm is generated during this period, the alarm and its clear alarm are both deleted from the alarm queue and will not be reported to the NMS.
Procedure
- Run system-view
The system view is displayed.
- Run alarm
The alarm view is displayed.
- Run delay-suppression enable
The alarm reporting delay function is enabled.
By default, the alarm reporting delay function is enabled.
- (Optional) Run suppression alarm-name alarm-name { cause-period cause-seconds | clear-period clear-seconds }
The period of delay in reporting alarms is configured.
The system has defined a default period of delay in reporting alarms.
Run the undo suppression alarm-name and display alarm information commands in sequence to view the default period of reporting delay.
You can use the parameter cause-period cause-seconds to set the period after which a generated alarm is reported.
You can use the parameter clear-period clear-seconds to set the period after which a generated clear alarm is reported.
- If alarm-name specifies an alarm, you can configure only cause-period cause-seconds. If it specifies a clear alarm, you can configured only clear-period clear-seconds.
